Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by increased blood glucose levels or hyperglycemia. There are four types of DM, namely type 1 DM, type 2 DM, gestational DM, and other types of DM. Type 2 DM occurs when the body experiences insulin resistance and relative insulin deficiency which often occurs in individuals over 40 years of age.

The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) states that there are 81 million people with DM in Southeast Asian countries and is expected to increase from 7.0% in the 20–79-year age group in 2010 to 8.4% in 2030 (WHO, 2011). Indonesia ranks fourth after India, China, and the United States in the highest number of DM (PERKENI, 2006). The number of DM cases in the Jember Regency itself in 10 years has increased by 210% over 10 years from 11,587 people in 2011 to 35,951 people in 2021. The number of DM cases in Sumbersari District is the highest with 1296 sufferers.
