Abstract
At least 171 million people in the world have diabetes, including 16 million people in the United States alone, and this number will increase to 366 million by the year 2030, according to the World Health Organization. Type 2 diabetes is now appearing in individuals in their 30s, and the incidence of the disease in pediatric patients has increased tenfold over the past 30 years. We give you the tools you need to help your patients fight this growing epidemic.
