November is National Diabetes Month. In the United States, approximately 30 million persons are living with diabetes and 84 million with prediabetes (1). Persons with prediabetes are at high risk for developing type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke (2). Likewise, women who have had gestational diabetes (diabetes during pregnancy) are at increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes later in life (2). However, type 2 diabetes can be prevented or delayed through a structured lifestyle change program that promotes weight loss, healthy eating, and increased physical activity (2). A report on changes in gestational diabetes in the United States is included in this issue of MMWR (3).
11 月是全国糖尿病宣传月。在美国,约有 3000 万人患有糖尿病,8400 万人患有糖尿病前期(1)。糖尿病前期患者患 2 型糖尿病、心脏病和中风的风险很高(2)。同样,患有妊娠糖尿病(怀孕期间的糖尿病)的女性在以后的生活中患 2 型糖尿病的风险也会增加(2)。然而,通过促进减肥、健康饮食和增加身体活动的结构化生活方式改变计划,可以预防或延迟 2 型糖尿病的发生(2)。本 MMWR 增刊中包含了一份关于美国妊娠糖尿病变化的报告(3)。
