Nutritional determinants of worldwide diabetes: an econometric study of food markets and diabetes prevalence in 173 countries.
Public Health Nutr. 2013; (1): 179-86

However, a transition to Western diets has been suggested as an alternative driver. We sought to determine what socio-economic and dietary factors are the most significant population-level contributors to diabetes prevalence rates internationally.
