Summary: Understanding the challenges and opportunities in Latinos with diabetes is necessary to develop and implement comprehensive culturally oriented diabetes care, education, outreach and research programs. Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified a number of type 2 diabetes (T2D) susceptibility loci primarily in populations of European ancestry ( 3 ). Several studies suggest that the Hispanic/LatinX population exhibit the highest cases of both diabetes and DR. Even though PGSs can be a valuable tool in personalized medicine, their predictive power is limited in populations of non-European ancestry, particularly in admixed populations. 5% who are undiagnosed and 10. 1 diabetes in Hispanics/Latinos, a number of cultural factors may affect type 2 diabetes outcomes. , Hispanic/Latino populations face increased disparities in both the prevalence and management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). 5 Harris, MI, et al.

In order to educate Hispanics with diabetes, it is necessary to have an understanding of the unique beliefs, customs, food patterns, and health care practices that are found in the Hispanic culture (Hatcher & Whittemore, 2007). Hispanics are the second-largest minority population in the United States.

In the USA the burden is borne disproportionately by ethnic minorities such as Hispanics. The condition is particularly prevalent among Hispanics, particularly in the U. The incidence and prevalence of diabetes in this population is more than double that For Hispanics, the confluence of high DM prevalence rates and increased susceptibility to DR translates to a worrisome projection of DR burden among this fast-growing segment of the population. Diabetes and prediabetes are increasing in prevalence, corresponding to epidemic rates of obesity. Hispanic and Latino populations may have different beliefs from non-Hispanic White populations regarding what causes diabetes. 9% of Hispanics/Latinos(as) reported that cost was a significant barrier to health care compared with 8. 5 million Hispanics in the United States, comprising 14% of the US population 1. 37 Major barriers to awareness and control of hypertension and diabetes in the Hispanic population include poor comprehension of language, poor physi- cian communication skills, cultural differences, poor Latinos are the largest minority group in the United States (US) (). 7Population Men Women Non-Hispanic Whites 8.
