Abstract
Background: The purpose of this study is to present a geographical map of mortality rate due to diabetes complications in different areas of Yazd during 2001-2010.
Materials and Methods: In this ecological study, a sample data of mortality due to diabetic complications in Yazd was gathered. Mortality rate calculation and geographical distribution mapping was performed then using this data.
Results: General rate of mortality from diabetic complications is higher in internal and marginal areas than high-income and new-built regions. This pattern is also consistent regardless of patients’ gender.
Conclusion: It seems that the observed pattern is due to inactivity in internal areas, as well as unawareness and lack of access to medical facilities in margins.
