World Diabetes Day

Nov 14, 2016 10:21
Today is World Diabetes Day.

Diabetes is a kind of disease that makes blood sugar level rise chronically, and it occurs when insulin which lowers blood sugar level doesn't work.

In reaction to the fact that diabetic patients have increased throughout the world, WHO specified November 14 as World Diabetes Day in 1991.

November 14 is the birthday of Frederick Grant Banting, who discovered insulin.

In this day, various facilities are lighted up blue all over the world, and several events and symposiums related to diabetes are held.

The blue light up comes from the World Diabetes Day's symbol "blue circle."

However, according to a study at Northwestern University published in PLOS ONE in this year, the risk of diabetes might increase by being exposed blue light.
世界糖尿病デー

今日は世界糖尿病デーです。

糖尿病は血糖値が慢性的に上がる病気で、血糖値を下げるインスリンがうまく働かないことで起こります。

糖尿病患者が世界的に増加しているのを受け、WHOは1991年に11月14日を世界糖尿病デーと制定しました。

11月14日は、インスリンを発見したフレデリック・バンティングの誕生日です。

この日、世界各地でブルーライトを灯す行事が行われ、糖尿病に関するイベントやシンポジウムなどが開かれます。

ブルーライトアップは世界糖尿病デーのシンボルであるブルーサークルにちなんだものです。

しかし、今年 PLOS ONE に掲載されたのノースウェスタン大学の研究によると、ブルーライトを浴びることで糖尿病のリスクが増加する可能性があるとのことです。

Thank you so much for correcting my post! :)

> Be more specific about the "various facilities."
I understand and I'll be more careful next time.
By the way in Japan, hospitals, TV towers, castles, and government managed buildings were lighted up blue.
