“…It is worth remembering that the rate of progression from prediabetes to DM is 6.8% per year 46. And among individuals categorized as prediabetic by both criteria (HbA 1c and fasting glucose), the cumulative risk of developing DM was 100% in a 5.6 years’ follow-up study 47.…”

“…Pre-diabetes is a less common but important condition that constitutes an intermediate state between type 2 diabetes and healthy status. Several studies have identified that individuals with pre-diabetes have a high risk of developing diabetes, and the occurrence increases with age 2–4. Approximately 5%–10% of people with pre-diabetes become diabetic annually, although the progression rate varies by population and the definition of pre-diabetes 5 6.…”

ObjectivesTo examine the association between diabetes-specific health literacy (DSHL) and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among elderly individuals with pre-diabetes in rural China.Design, setting and participantsThis cross-sectional study included 434 elderly individuals with pre-diabetes from 42 villages in rural China.Main outcome measuresHRQoL was assessed using the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey. DSHL was measured by a validated questionnaire in China. Differences in HRQoL between groups with and without high DSHL were tested by multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA).ResultsThe prevalence of pre-diabetes was 21.5%. The average age of participants (n=434) was 69.4±6.4 years, and 58.5% were female. Bivariate analysis showed that those with high DSHL had increases of 2.9 points in the physical health component score and 4.4 points in the mental health component score (MCS) compared with those without. After adjustment for potential confounders, a significant MANCOVA model (Wilks’ λ=0.974, F=5.63, p=0.004) indicated that individuals with pre-diabetes who had high DSHL reported higher MCS (Mdiff=3.5, 95% CI 1.8 to 6.3, effect size=0.38). This remained significant across subscales: general health (p=0.028), vitality (p=0.014), social functioning (p=0.017) and mental health (p=0.005).ConclusionsLow DSHL was associated with worsening HRQoL among elderly individuals with pre-diabetes in rural China, particularly in the mental health components.Trial registration numberChiCTR-IOR-15007033.

“…According to WHS 2009 data, Singapore is the country with the highest diabetes prevalence with 12 876 cases per 100 000 inhabitants, which is mainly observed in the Chinese community and is probably due to the intense urban lifestyle in Singapore 41. Although many laboratory studies have observed physiological effects of BT on glucose metabolism,17 18 42 43 the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The results of human intervention studies are mixed44 and the role of caffeine has been suggested but not clearly established 43…”

“…The results of human intervention studies are mixed44 and the role of caffeine has been suggested but not clearly established 4345 Neyestani et al 42 found that regular daily intake of BT improves oxidative stress biomarkers and decreases serum C reactive protein levels in type 2 diabetic patients. Histological studies on pancreas cells published by Manikandan et al 17 concluded that the BT extract contributes to regeneration of damaged pancreas cells and protects pancreatic β-cells by its antioxidant action.…”

ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to investigate potential statistical relationships between black tea consumption and key health indicators in the world. The research question is: Does tea consumption is correlated with one or more epidemiological indicators?DesignEcological study using a systematic data-mining approach in which the unit of the analysis is a population of one country.SettingSix variables, black tea consumption data and prevalence data of respiratory diseases, infectious diseases, cancer, cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, have been studied at a global level.ParticipantsData from 50 participating countries in the World Health Survey were investigated.Primary and secondary outcomes measuresLevel of statistical relationships between variables.ResultsPrincipal component analysis established a very high contribution of the black tea consumption parameter on the third axis (81%). The correlation circle confirmed that the ‘black tea’ vector was negatively correlated with the diabetes vector and was not correlated with any of the other four health indicators. A linear correlation model then confirmed a significant statistical correlation between high black tea consumption and low diabetes prevalence.ConclusionsThis innovative study establishes a linear statistical correlation between high black tea consumption and low diabetes prevalence in the world. These results are consistent with biological and physiological studies conducted on the effect of black tea on diabetes and confirm the results of a previous ecological study in Europe. Further epidemiological research and randomised studies are necessary to investigate the causality.

Progression rate of newly diagnosed impaired fasting glycemia to type 2 diabetes mellitus: A study using the National Healthcare Group Diabetes Registry in Singapore

Abstract: The progression rate to T2DM is high in subjects with newly diagnosed IFG. Intensive lifestyle modification can be incorporated into their current yearly follow-up to prevent progression to T2DM, which is a growing problem in Singapore.
