Global diabetic about 350 million
It is reported that organizes the network report, an international research group, through sorting out and analyzing the global diabetic case data have been found since 1980 according to the American physicist, the adult diabetic's quantity will be already up to 347 million in 2008, it is twice that of 1980 diabetic's quantity. This research is published on the " lancet " magazine.

Diabetes is because human cells are unable to absorb glucose, cause glucose in the blood to pile up too much, glucose amount is higher than disease of the normal level in the blood. Diabetes can initiate heart disease and apoplexy, cause the kidney, nerve and retina to damage. Annual the whole world exceed 3 million persons because of the diabetic death.

Found by the international research group which Professor Ma Jide of Imperial College of Science and Technology and public health ancient Des, doctor of institute in Harvard University led, from 1980 to 2008, adult the intersection of diabetic and number rise to 347 million from 153 million, male the intersection of diabetic and proportion rise to 9.8% from 8.3% among them, women diabetic's proportion rises to 9.2% from 7.5%. 70% of factor causing diabetic's quantity to rise is because of population growth and senilization, 30% are ascribed to the high morbidity.

Ma Jide say diabetes become global the intersection of morbidity and most high and the intersection of mortality and supreme disease already. Studies have suggested, diabetes is seen everywhere in all parts of the world. Hypertension and high cholesterol have already been a downward trend in the whole world, but diabetes is on the rise, and it is more difficult to prevent and treat. Ancient Des thinks, unless strengthen blood glucose to measure, helps people to improve the eating habit, strengthen the body and do exercises and control the weight, otherwise diabetes will become the heavy burden of the hygiene system of the world inevitably.

This research still finds, diabetes of the island country of the Pacific Ocean is the most serious, its diabetic's proportion is the highest. In the Marshall Islands, 1/3 of the women and 1/4 of the men suffer from diabetes. In addition, South Asia, Latin America, Caribbean area, Central Asia, north African and proportion of the diabetic in Middle East area are higher. In the high-income countries, the diabetic's quantity rises relatively small, among them U.S.A., Greenland, Malta, New Zealand and Spain are relatively high, the lowest one is Holland, Austria and France. The lowest area of the blood glucose level is Africa area, East Asia and Southeast Asia to the south of the Sahara. (He stands erect)
