Purpose of Review

The goal of this review is to assess current evidence on diabetes risk and control among adult immigrants in the USA.

Recent Findings

Patterns of diabetes risk in US immigrants may reflect global diabetes trends. Asian, Black, and Latinx immigrants all see a diabetes disadvantage relative to US-born Whites. Diabetes risk in Asian immigrants also surpasses US-born Asians. Relative diabetes risk among all groups increases with time in the USA. Research to explain patterns in diabetes risk and control among immigrants has broadened from lifestyle factors to include multi-level, life course influences on trajectories of risk. Some determinants are shared across groups, such as structural racism, healthcare access, and migration stress, whereas others such as diet are embedded in sending country culture.

Summary

Current literature on diabetes in immigrant populations suggests a need to shift towards a transnational lens and macro-level social determinants of health framework to understand diabetes risk and potential prevention factors.

美国多种族移民人群的糖尿病风险和控制

审查目的

这篇综述的目的是评估美国成年移民中有关糖尿病风险和控制的最新证据。

最近的发现

美国移民的糖尿病风险模式可能反映了全球糖尿病趋势。与美国出生的白人相比，亚洲，黑人和拉丁裔移民都对糖尿病不利。亚洲移民中的糖尿病风险也超过了美国出生的亚洲人。在美国，所有人群中相对的糖尿病风险都随时间增加。解释移民中糖尿病风险和控制方式的研究已从生活方式因素扩展到包括多层次，生命过程对风险轨迹的影响。一些决定因素在不同群体之间是共享的，例如结构种族主义，医疗保健的获取和迁移压力，而其他因素（例如饮食）则被嵌入发送国的文化中。

概要

有关移民人口中糖尿病的最新文献表明，有必要转向跨国框架和健康框架的宏观社会决定因素，以了解糖尿病的风险和潜在的预防因素。
