“…The prevalence of prediabetes, as defined by glucose abnormalities, demonstrated no significant trend from 1999 to 2014, and the total prevalence was 15.5% among the US adolescents [1]. In Iran, the corresponding value increased from 7% in 1999-2005 to 16.6% in 2011-2014 among adolescents [23]. In India, the prevalence of prediabetes was 12.3% and 8.4% among boys and girls, respectively [24].…”
