Overview
Gone are the days when diabetes mellitus was thought to be rare or even non-existent in Africa. In fact, diabetes is common in Africa, and the International Diabetes Federation predicts that by 2050, this continent will have the highest prevalence in the world. Due to the particular frequency of acute complications, African diabetology is the polar opposite of Western diabetology. This book is devoted to the African specificities of a universal disease. It attempts to reflect the experience we have gained in over 30 years of managing this disease. The aspects described in Côte d'Ivoire seem to be representative of those in other sub-Saharan African countries.
