CAMPOS CALERO, Álvaro e CARRETERO MORAL, Pascual. Adaptation of health care to cultural and economic conditions: treating diabetes in refugee camps. Index Enferm [online]. 2016, vol.25, n.3, pp.203-206. ISSN 1699-5988.
The high percentage of diabetics, patient streated in a multidisciplinary consultation, in the Sahara wire fugee camps (CRS), raises the possibility that there is a very high prevalence of this disease. Diabetes mellitus in CRS is favored by factors associated with changing living conditions of this population, which has evolved from nomads to a sedentary life style and forced to dietary dependence on humanitarian naid. These characteristics of refugee life, involved in the development of chronic diseases, are the reason for reflection of this article.
