Diabetes in Eastern Europe

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Diabetes Mellitus in Developing Countries and Underserved Communities

Abstract

This review is dedicated to relevant diabetes mellitus-related aspects in several European countries that emerged after the breakup of the Soviet Union. After more than two decades of existence, these countries significantly differ according to their economic standing, demographic parameters, as well as presence, speed, and orientation of healthcare reforms (Table 11.1). The former “Soviet republics” that prior to 1991 had similar socioeconomic characteristics and identical healthcare system are now independent Eastern European and Baltic states that belong to different socioeconomic and political communities.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Such register was functional in Ukraine for some time (2000–2009), and several studies in the field of T1D [41, 42] as well as T2D [43–47] were based on its data. Some investigations, based on the Ukrainian Diabetes Mellitus Register, were published in local journals in Ukrainian [48–51]; therefore, here we are giving a more detailed presentation of some of that published data about gender aspects of mortality among diabetes patients.
