  • Title: [Diabetes mellitus type 2].
    Author: Hauner H, Scherbaum WA.
    Journal: Dtsch Med Wochenschr; 2002 May 10; 127(19):1003-5. PubMed ID: 11997866.
    Abstract:
    Type 2 diabetes represents the most common form of carbohydrate disorders affecting at least 5% of the population in the industrialized world. In addition to genetic predisposition obesity and a sedentary lifestyle are the main promoters. Recent data clearly suggest that lifestyle intervention in people at increased risk can potently reduce the incidence of the disease. In overt type 2 diabetes, good glycaemic control and aggressive management of associated cardiovascular risk factors may prevent its multiple and costly complications.
