The remission of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a topic that has been widely discussed recently, and it gives new hope for people with T2DM. Achievement of normal blood glucose levels or levels below the diagnostic threshold for T2DM without pharmacotherapy among people with T2DM after metabolic surgery and carbohydrate or calorie-restricted diet paved the way for more enthusiastic research in this area. There is a lot of confusion regarding the appropriate terminology and definition of remission of T2DM. In this short review, we briefly analyzed the emerging concepts and proposed criteria for diagnosing remission of T2DM, which will be helpful for healthcare providers and people with T2DM.
2型糖尿病（T2DM）的缓解是近来广受讨论的话题，它为T2DM患者带来了新希望。代谢手术以及碳水化合物或热量限制饮食后，T2DM患者在无需药物治疗的情况下实现正常血糖水平或低于T2DM诊断阈值的血糖水平，为该领域更积极的研究铺平了道路。关于T2DM缓解的恰当术语和定义存在诸多混淆。在这篇简短综述中，我们简要分析了T2DM缓解的新兴概念及诊断标准，这将有助于医疗服务提供者和T2DM患者。
