Key Points

  • This study aims to compare the rates of progression to type 2 diabetes and regression to normoglycaemia among Ghanaians with prediabetes in different settings.
  • Conducted a prospective study among Ghanaians with prediabetes
  • Compared rates of progression to type 2 diabetes and regression to normoglycaemia
  • Analyzed differences in outcomes between migrants and non-migrants
  • More frequent regression to normoglycaemia than progression to T2D observed
  • Non-migrants showed higher rates of regression compared to migrants

Abstract

Among Ghanaians with prediabetes, regression to normoglycaemia was more frequent than progression to T2D, and more likely in non-migrants than in migrants. Future studies could identify factors underlying the higher rates of regression to normoglycaemia in non-migrants to improve outcomes in individuals with prediabetes.
