| 总结: | Efforts towards improving the management of diabetes mellitus has grown and progressed.

and policies. “Prevention is better than cure” is definitely the precise solution to this
catastrophe. A paradigm shift in strategies for the prevention of diabetes and treatment of
its risk factors is an imperative. |
