Self-Monitoring of Blood Glucose in the Asia-Pacific Region
Abstract
Diabetes affects 240 million people worldwide and is expected to affect some 380 million by the year 2025. Seven of the 10 countries with the highest number of people living with diabetes are in the developing world. The reason for this in the Asia-Pacific region results from a combination of large population size with rapidly rising prevalence rates of type 2 diabetes mellitus, and though much heterogeneity exists, rising prevalence rates are being seen throughout the region and appear to be closely associated with migration, urbanization, and mechanization. Prevalence rates of diabetes vary greatly and generally parallel the level of affluence and degree of industrialization of individual countries. In view of the severity of the long-term complications of diabetes, the health consequences of this epidemic will become increasingly devastating and threaten to overwhelm the health care systems in the most vulnerable countries. General awareness of self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) for patients would help in control of blood glucose levels in these diverse populations. The prevailing practice of SMBG is low essentially because of lack of education and motivation, though cost is an additional limiting factor.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
