Diabetes mellitus. A report from the Australian General Practitioner Morbidity and Prescribing Survey 1969-1974.

The Royal Australian College of General Practitioners, in association with Intercontinental Medical Statistics conducted a General Practice Morbidity and Prescribing Survey from 1.4.69 to 31.12.74. This gave a baseline study of morbidity as it occurs in Australia plus a breakdown by State, sex, age and season, to give a clearer idea of geographical, personal and epidemiological factors influencing health and sickness.
