The onset of diabetes seems to be an increase.
Indeed, the World Diabetes Foundation explicitly declares that the prevalence is now at epidemic proportions
Nearly $ 500 million or 8.0% of the adult population of the world expected to contract diabetes by 2030. This represents an increase of 22% from current levels with 290 million who now live with the disease.Developing countries appear to be the most vulnerable with 70% of current cases that occur in low and middle income countries. The India have diabetes more of the world, with a 51million people estimated population, followed by China with 43.2 million. This is contrary to demographic statistics, given that the Indian population is much younger.The prevalence is much higher than in the Western Pacific, while the high increase is expected in the region of Africa.The age group which seems to be more sensitive is the 40 to 59 years old. and it seems y have no correlation to sex. It is expected that by 2030, the most affected age group will be 60 to 79 years.Diabetes remains as one of the main causes of premature illness and death worldwide. and the costs of treatments remain staggering.According to reports, the increase has already exceeded the predictions of who and is on the rise among older people. It could also be that it is a greatly improved detection and diagnostic capacity, that produce prolific results.
It seems that some news promising on the horizon
Researchers have discovered a gene that may be responsible for diabetes. This gene, called HNF4a, serves as a master switch that controls several genes that are active in the pancreas and liver. Diabetes type 2, or adult onset, now back, at least in part, to common mutations almost the same gene.
The promise is that now, it appears that the gene have been identified, efforts can be directed to specific genes control therapies or manipulate the gene which can even lead to the eradication of the disease.
Discovery of the gene mutation has led to the development of a screening test for early identification of those who are likely to contract the disease...
The hope of researchers, who, with gene, research, better treatments to patients with type 2 diabetes, can be developed or the gene defect could be corrected that can lead to the Elimination of type 2 diabetes...
Early intervention for people with the mutation HMGA-1 should include changes of mode of life, proper exercise, weight and measure, and maintain proper blood sugar levels.
