| Abstract | Prediabetes is a borderline glycemic status associated with both higher incident cardiovascular disease as well as higher risk of progression to diabetes. There is a rising burden of diabetes and prediabetes globally. This study aims to estimate the burden of prediabetes in Nigeria. Online searches of Google Scholar, PubMed and Scopus were conducted and studies selected based on predefined criteria. 15 studies consisting of 14206 individuals conducted between 2000 and 2019 were included in the meta-analysis with studies using American Diabetic Association (ADA) and World Health Organization (WHO) criteria pooled separately. The pooled prevalence of prediabetes in Nigeria was found to be 13.2% (95% CI: 5.6%-23.2%, I2 = 98.4% ) using the ADA criteria and 10.4% (95% CI: 4.3%-18.9%, I2 = 99.2% ) using the WHO criteria. According to the latest data by the United Nations(1), this translates to estimated 15.8 million and 12.5 adult prediabetic individuals in Nigeria using the ADA and WHO criteria respectively. The prevalence rates for females and males are similar at 12.1% (95% CI: 5%-21%). The pooled prevalence rates for urban and rural settlements are also similar at 9% (95% CI: 2%-22%). In conclusion, the prevalence of prediabetes in Nigeria is almost 2 times higher than the 7.3% estimate by the International Diabetes Federation in 2003. The similar rates of prediabetes between males and females and between urban and rural settlements points towards narrowing of cardiovascular risk burden between the two sexes and the two settlements. This represents higher future cardiovascular disease burden in the country further pressurizing the overstretched health care system. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
