Diabetes is a costly disease with a significant global health burden that is expected
to increase in the years ahead. In 2021, 537 million adults were estimated to be living
with diabetes. This number is predicted to rise to 643 million by 2030 and 783 million
by 2045 [
[1]
]. Preventive strategies remain one of the cornerstones in the reduction of this burden.
We congratulate Garcia-Ulloa et al. for assessing the effect of a comprehensive diabetes
care model on lifestyle, metabolic, and mental health parameters in relatives of patients
with type 2 diabetes [
[2]
]. After carefully reviewing the study, we would like to share some comments.- Garcia-Ulloa Ana C.
