In the past two decades, the global health landscape has undergone rapid transformation, from communicable diseases being the leading causes of disability and death to non-communicable diseases taking the lead. People around the world are living longer than ever before, and the population is getting older. However, the observed trends in the global health landscape have varied substantially across regions and countries, with sub-Saharan Africa being a striking example. Communicable, maternal, nutritional, and newborn diseases have continued to dominate in sub-Saharan Africa alongside the increasing prevalence of type 2 diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, and cancer.

撒哈拉以南非洲地区的糖尿病：让我们不要忘记1型

在过去的二十年中，全球健康格局发生了迅速的变化，从导致致残和死亡的主要传染病到以非传染病为首的非传染病。世界各地的人们比以往任何时候都寿命更长，而且人口正在老龄化。但是，在全球健康格局中观察到的趋势在各个地区和国家之间差异很大，撒哈拉以南非洲就是一个明显的例子。在撒哈拉以南非洲，传染性疾病，孕产妇疾病，营养疾病和新生儿疾病继续占主导地位，而2型糖尿病，高血压，心血管和呼吸系统疾病以及癌症的患病率也在上升。
