International Journal of Diabetes & Metabolic Disorders
Diabetes is a pandemic disease. According to the International Diabetes Federation, the number of people with diabetes over the world is projected to reach 415 million in 2015 and to rise to 642 million in 2040 [1]. Every 6 seconds, a person dies from diabetes (5.0 million deaths in 2015). The cost of diabetes treatment is estimated to be 12% of global health expenditure (673 billion dollars in 2015). Diabetes is not only a medical problem but also one of the biggest socioeconomic problems in the world.
