[A program for the prevention of diabetes mellitus in Lithuania].
The Programme on Diabetes Mellitus Control is a constituent part of Integrated Programme on Chronic Non-infectious Diseases Control. The epidemiological evidence has demonstrated the high prevalence of deranged carbohydrate metabolism in the republic. Registers of carbohydrate metabolism disorders were created for the children's population of the Republic and the adult population of Kaunas and two agricultural-industrial regions. A school for diabetic patients and the society 'Insula' were organised. The research-practical programme is implemented in stages.
