Abstract:Pre-diabetes is associated with an increased risk of diabetes, microvascular disease, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, cancer, dementia, depression and other diseases, and is a necessary stage for the development of diabetes. In recent years, the research on pre-diabetes has made rapid progress both at home and abroad. Chinese Society of Endocrinology has updated and improved the original consensus, and released Intervention for adults with pre-diabetes: a Chinese expert consensus (2023 edition) , which has significant value in guiding the screening, prevention, and treatment of pre-diabetes, standardizing clinical management, and slowing the progression of prediabetes in China. This article interprets this version of the consensus.
