National Strategies to Decrease the Burden of Diabetes and Its Complications

摘要

Comparative results from national strategies for diabetes care and prevention are needed to understand the impact and barriers encountered during the implementation process. Long-term outcomes are limited, but results on intermediate outcomes and processes of diabetes care measures are available from translational research studies. In this narrative review, we highlight programs with nationwide reach, targeting various ethnic, racial, and socioeconomic populations with diabetes. We describe the implementation strategies, the impact on clinical outcomes, specific barriers, and cost-effectiveness results of national efforts aimed at improving diabetes care and prevention in the USA.
