Epidemiology of Diabetes

Prospective studies suggest that the main pathophysiological defects leading to type 2 diabetes are insulin resistance and a relative insulin secretory defect. The main aetiological risk factors are age, obesity, family history and physical inactivity. Dietary risk factors have recently emerged. The disease burden related to diabetes is high and rising in every country mainly fuelled by the global rise in the prevalence of obesity and unhealthy lifestyles. Both forms of diabetes can lead to multisystem complications of microvascular endpoints, including retinopathy, nephropathy and neuropathy, and macrovascular endpoints including ischaemic heart disease, stroke and peripheral vascular disease. The premature morbidity, mortality, reduced life expectancy and financial and other costs of diabetes make it an important public health condition. Follow Diabetes Conferences for more details
