The IDF Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Region currently represents 24 diabetes organisations in 19 countries and territories. It covers a wide area in North Africa and West-Asia, extending from Pakistan in the east to Morocco in the west. The majority of countries in this vast and geographically important area fall under the umbrella of IDF.
The elected IDF Representatives for the MENA Region for 2016-17 are:
Chair 2016-2017: Dr Nizar Al Bache, Syria
Chair-Elect: Prof. Abdul Basit, Pakistan
People with both type 2 diabetes and acute heart failure face a significantly lower risk of death, a recent study has revealed.
