“…The diverseness of baseline characteristics con rms that the VERIFY study protocol genuinely allowed enrollment of a globally heterogeneous population re ective of currently diagnosed individuals with diabetes. In Latin America as in other global regions outside Northern Europe [18], a deeper analysis of the glycemic data from the screening phase reverberates the challenges in accurate, early and timely diagnosis of T2DM based on glycemia as reported for Latin America [6,8]. Therefore, in this region where there is less-structured public healthcare infrastructure, socioeconomic inequality, and limited access to care, it is sensible that recommendations and procedures facilitate early diagnosis and intervention.…”

“…Diabetes imposes a high economic burden in Latin American countries, incurring a total cost of USD 70 billion annually and constituting up to 6-24% of the annual total expenditure of the national health budgets [2]. The heterogeneity in the economic vulnerabilities towards diabetes across the region [6] might be due to inequalities in the socioeconomic aspects among countries in the Latin American region [7]. Socioeconomic conditions in Latin America present several public health challenges for diabetes care, such as low disease awareness, inadequate diagnosis, treatment and preventive measures, and limited access to healthcare facilities [6,8,9].…”
