Adopting a truly global perspective and a practical approach to diabetes—including pathophysiology, genetics, regional peculiarities, management, prevention and best practices—this book is an excellent resource for clinicians and policy-makers working with patients in more austere settings. The global prevalence of diabetes is estimated to increase from 422 million in 2014 to 592 million in 2035. Sadly, low- and middle-economy countries are projected to experience the steepest increase, but even in developed economies, vulnerable demographic subgroups manifest disparities in diabetes prevalence, quality of care, and outcomes. This book extends coverage to those underserved and minority communities in the developed world. In a consistent chapter format, it discusses classification, pathophysiology, genomics, diagnosis, prevention and management of diabetes in economically challenged regions as well as underserved populations in affluent nations. Suggestions regarding future directions in the organization of diabetes care delivery, prevention and research priorities are also provided. The detailed identification of barriers to optimal care and the practical approach to the management and prevention of diabetes make Diabetes Mellitus in Developing Countries and Underserved Communities a valuable resource for clinicians, researchers and health policy leaders.

Cardiovascular, respiratory, and related conditions cause more than 40 percent of all deaths globally, and their substantial burden is rising, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Their burden extends well beyond health effects to include significant economic and societal consequences. Most of these conditions are related, share risk factors, and have common control measures at the clinical, population, and policy levels. Lives can be extended and improved when these diseases are prevented, detected, and managed. This volume summarizes current knowledge and presents evidence-based interventions that are effective, cost-effective, and scalable in LMICs.

"On the occasion of World Health Day 2016, WHO issues a call for action on diabetes, drawing attention to the need to step up prevention and treatment of the disease. The first WHO Global report on diabetes demonstrates that the number of adults living with diabetes has almost quadrupled since 1980 to 422 million adults. This dramatic rise is largely due to the rise in type 2 diabetes and factors driving it include overweight and obesity. In 2012 alone diabetes caused 1.5 million deaths. Its complications can lead to heart attack, stroke, blindness, kidney failure and lower limb amputation. The new report calls upon governments to ensure that people are able to make healthy choices and that health systems are able to diagnose, treat and care for people with diabetes. It encourages us all as individuals to eat healthily, be physically active, and avoid excessive weight gain."--Publisher's description.

India will face one of the toughest struggles against diabetes in the region and will be the largest contributor to regional mortality with 9,83,000 deaths attributable to diabetes. Type-II diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major public health problem with more than 471 billion USD spent on healthcare for diabetes. The WHO predicts DM to become the seventh leading cause of death in the world by 2030. An estimated 3.4 million people have died from the consequences of high blood sugar in 2004. Out of all the deaths caused by DM, 80% of them occur in low and middle-income countries. DM is an expensive disease as per capita cost of managing the disease is 2-4 folds higher than the non-diabetics. Treatment costs increase with disease duration, presence of complications, hospitalization and urban settings. Healthcare expenditures on diabetes accounted for 11.6% of the total healthcare expenditure in the world in 2010. By 2030, this amount will exceed USD 490 billion. The direct cost on diabetes healthcare is usually very high for people in developing countries. Present study focuses on studying economic impact of DM in urban and rural field practice area of Sri Siddhartha medical college and examining of the financial coping mechanisms.OBJECTIVES: 1.To estimate the total expenditure incurred by Diabetics and its socio economic impact on their families. 2.To estimate the magnitude of Catastrophic Hospital Expenditure (CHE) due to type-II Diabetes Mellitus. 3. To assess the financial coping mechanisms of households with Type-II Diabetes mellitus.MATERIALS AND METHODS: The cross sectional study was conducted in urban and rural field practice areas of Sri Siddhartha Medical College in Tumkur. 180 study subjects each from urban and rural field practice area were included in the study and systematic random sampling method was used to include the study subjects . RESULTS:Mean total diabetic expenditure was higher among urban study subjects at 778 rupees per month while it was lesser among the rural study subjects which was 285 rupees per month. This was statistically significant. Total monthly indirect diabetic expenditure was higher among urban population (190 rupees ) as compared to rural study subjects who spend around 145 rupees .This was also statistically significant . Catastrophic hospital expenditure was experienced by 27 % of study subjects, higher in urban area (30%) than rural area (24%). Mobilising savings and using cash were the commonest coping up strategies adopted by diabetics. CONCLUSION:Mean total direct cost incurred by diabetic study subjects per month was higher in urban area (778 Rupees) than rural areas( 285 Rupees) .Diabetics from both urban and rural areas spend most on purchase of oral medication (64% and 61% respectively). Mean indirect cost of diabetes per month was higher in urban areas (190 rupees) than in rural area (145 rupees) with major indirect loss coming from loss of wages. Catastrophic hospital spending was experienced more by urban area diabetics (30%) than among rural diabetics (24%). However catastrophic hospital spending increased among hospitalized study subjects from both urban and rural area (84% among urban and 83% among rural areas).
