Abstract: The United States has the 3rd highest number of people with diabetes (30 million) with an additional 84 million Americans having pre-diabetes. Diabetes is associated with multiple micro- and macro-vascular complications and leads to increased risk for blindness, stroke, heart attack, lower limb amputation, and kidney failure. West Virginia is unduly burdened by the disease, as approximately 12.5% of the population have diagnosed diabetes and an additional 35.9% of the population have prediabetes.
