Purpose of Review Latin America is the scenario of great inequalities where about 32 million human beings live with diabetes. Through this review, we aimed at describing the current state of the prevalence, awareness, treatment, and control of diabetes mellitus and completion of selected guidelines of care across Latin America and identify opportunities to advance research that promotes better health outcomes. Recent Findings The prevalence of diabetes mellitus has been consistently increasing across the region, with some variation: higher prevalence in Mexico, Haiti, and Puerto Rico and lower in Colombia, Ecuador, Dominican Republic, Peru, and Uruguay. Prevalence assessment methods vary, and potentially underestimating the real number of persons with diabetes. Diabetes unawareness varies widely, with up to 50% of persons with diabetes who do not know they may have the disease. Glycemic, blood pressure, and LDL-C control and completion of guidelines to prevent microvascular complications are not consistently assessed across studies, and the achievement of control goals is suboptimal. On the other hand, multiple interventions, point-of-care/rapid assessment tools, and alternative models of health care delivery have been proposed and tested throughout Latin America. Summary The prevalence of diabetes mellitus continues to rise across Latin America, and the number of those with the disease may be underestimated. However, some local governments are embedding more comprehensive diabetes assessments in their local national surveys. Clinicians and public health advocates in the region have proposed and initiated various multi-level interventions to address this enormous challenge in the region. Keywords Latin America. Diabetes prevalence. Diabetes treatment. Control. Diabetes complications. Interventions. Health care This article is part of the Topical Collection on Diabetes Epidemiology

“…In the work of family health teams, as in all primary-care work, clinical activities depend on professionals with different training (physicians, nurses and others), but they also depend on the interdisciplinary interaction between these different forms of clinical practice, an interaction that has its most significant moment in team work. It is essential to include the multiprofessional health team to face the problem, which requires a broad structure of knowledge about health promotion and prevention for the benefit of the entire society 22 , 23 .…”

Tuberculosis is a worldwide public health problem, which, even with available treatment, continues to cause deaths worldwide. One of the obstacles to control the disease is the multifactorial difficulty of patients to adhere to treatment, in addition to the difficulty of health workers in circumventing barriers to implement strategies such as the directly observed treatment (DOT). The aim of this study is to analyze the performance and challenges faced by health workers in the use of DOT in tuberculosis. This is a descriptive, quali-quantitative study using data from interviews with primary-care professionals working in nine municipalities of Parana State, Brazil. The professionals answered a questionnaire containing four closed questions about DOT and an open question related to their professional opinion about the strategy. Quantitative data were entered into a spreadsheet and statistically propagated. Qualitative data were treated from the transcription of statements, subsequently submitted to content analysis. Of the 387 professionals interviewed, at least 58.9% had some knowledge about DOT. Among the main challenges faced by the professionals are: lack of user commitment to treatment (48.3%), users' difficulty in attending the basic health clinics (BHC) (31.4%), professionals' difficulty to reach the place where patients are treated (8.8 %), insufficient staff / lack of human resources (4.1%) and use of illicit drugs by patients (3.9%). Blaming the user and the lack of resources are the main highlights, in addition to issues such as the professionals' lack of access and knowledge that are highlighted by the difficulty of patients to adhere to the treatment of tuberculosis according to the participants' statements. The issues were raised by health workers manifestations involving adherence to treatment according to the DOT in the studied health region. It is possible, in this context, to observe the need for improvement in the knowledge of professionals with regard to the DOT, the importance of their bond with patients and families and the recognition of the part of responsibility that belongs to the health team on guaranteeing treatment.

“…Otra posible explicación podría ser el mayor autocuidado de su salud en esta población. No obstante, no se cuenta con información del control de la glucemia como factor asociado con tratamiento exitoso (29). Por otra parte, la ausencia de datos sobre la prevalencia de diabetes en población general limita la comparación con otros estudios.…”

Objetivo. Determinar los factores asociados con el tratamiento no exitoso en pacientes diagnosticados con tuberculosis (TB) sensible en Paraguay. Métodos. Estudio de cohorte retrospectivo, con datos recolectados del programa nacional entre enero de 2016 y marzo de 2017. Se definió tratamiento no exitoso como pacientes que se perdieron en el seguimiento, fracasaron en el tratamiento o fallecieron. Los factores asociados con tratamiento no exitoso se determinaron con regresión de Poisson; se estimó el riesgo relativo (RR) y el intervalo de confianza de 95% (IC95%) ajustados por región sanitaria. Resultados. Se estudiaron 3 034 casos: 2 189 (72,1%) tuvieron tratamiento exitoso (curados: 1 221 [40,2%], tratamiento completo: 968 [31,9%]) y 845 (27,9%) presentaron tratamiento no exitoso (fracaso: 40 [1,3%], pérdida de seguimiento: 466 [15,4%] y fallecidos: 339 [11,2%]). Los factores asociados a tratamiento no exitoso fueron hombres 1,28 (1,14- 1,42), indígenas 1,30 (1,09- 1,54), sin reporte de área de residencia 1,27 (1,02- 1,57), coinfección TB/VIH 1,97 (1,63- 2,38), adicción a drogas ilícitas 1,38 (1,16- 1,63), consumo de alcohol 1,25 (1,02- 1,52), ser previamente tratado 1,23 (1,10- 1,38) y sin datos de supervisión del tratamiento 4,92 (3,69- 6,56). Como factores protectores se consideran ser persona privada de libertad 0,65 (0,47- 0,89), así como la comorbilidad TB/diabetes 0,80 (0,67- 0,95). Conclusión. Paraguay presenta un alto porcentaje de tratamiento no exitoso en casi todo el país, sin alcanzar la meta propuesta por la Organización Mundial de la Salud. Los factores de riesgo asociados como infección por el virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana (VIH), consumo de drogas licitas e ilícitas y el ser indígena revela que es necesario revisar las estrategias dirigidas con abordaje interinstitucional.
