Lilavivat, S. Stinson, J. Vena, L. Chen Members via phone: None Guests: K. Linville, F. King, K. Piezer, S. Eubanks John Vena, PhD called the meeting to order at 11:1 am. I. The minutes from the December 4, 215 meeting were approved. II. Dr. Vena reviewed the DHEC data sheets Diabetes Impact in SC and Prediabetes in SC. There is concern of underestimates in the prevalence due to the data being self-reported. The Council will look at other data options around the state for pre-diabetes, and explore ways to tie together the efforts of the Surveillance and Outreach Councils. It was questioned if the Guidelines have had an impact on screening and prevalence. III. Khosrow Heidari reviewed a handout on the 1 leading causes of death by age group in SC from 214. IV. Dr. Vena reviewed the priorities for the Strategic Plan, and asked members to review and send comments/suggestions. V. HSSC Project: Discussion on how HSSC can better capture data on pre-diabetes. Dr. Hermayer noted that Brent Egan with the Hypertension Initiative is the only person who would have that data outside of the 5 hospitals participating in the data submission. Dr. Lilavivat would like to develop an app for collecting data. The meeting was adjourned at 12:29 pm Respectfully submitted, John Vena, PhD Future meeting dates: Friday, June 3, 216 in Columbia Friday, September 2, 216 in Charleston Friday, December 2, 216 in Columbia 1

3 DIABETES INITIATIVE OF SOUTH CAROLINA SURVEILLANCE COUNCIL QUARTERLY REPORT March May 216 Diabetes Fall Symposium articles for the American Journal of Medical Sciences Symposium edition were published in April. The following articles were submitted by DSC members and accepted published in the Journal: - Heidari K, Breneman CB, Barton ER, Fogner A, Callahan K, Diedhiou A. South Carolina: 2 Years of Diabetes A Public Health Concern. - Walker RJ, Strom Williams J, Egede LE. Influence of Race, Ethnicity and Social Determinants of Health on Diabetes Outcomes. - Shearer JE, Jenkins CH, Magwood GS, Pope CA. Contested Ownership of Disease and Ambulatory-Sensitive Emergency Department Visits for Type 2 Diabetes. The annual DSC Diabetes Under the Dome event was held on Wednesday, March 16, 216 at the SC Statehouse. Legislators and diabetes advocates gathered at the Statehouse to focus attention on diabetes awareness and the increasing number of South Carolinians diagnosed with diabetes. Fifty-seven legislators and staff were assessed for A1c, lipids, height, weight, BMI, BP and waist circumference. Volunteer healthcare professionals were on hand from DSC, MUSC, Fortis College, Presbyterian College of Pharmacy, USC, Palmetto Health, and Novo Nordisk. A Press Conference was held at 9:3am, followed by a Meet and Greet with Governor Nikki Haley. DHEC s 14 th Annual Chronic Disease Prevention Symposium was held in Myrtle Beach on March 11 12, 216. This year s program concentrated on a team based approach for chronic disease prevention and management.

4 Taken from the DHEC June Quarterly DSC Board Report II. Diabetes Surveillance Systems: Goal: Monitor the statewide diabetes burden and identify gaps to assist with planning, decision-making, and evaluation. Last week, CDC released the county level estimates for diabetes prevalence. The SC two highest counties with diabetes prevalence are Allendale (17.4%) and Fairfield (15.5%) and the two lowest are Beaufort (8%) and Lexington (9%) based on three year average -214, BRFSS. See the motion chart tab at - Motion Chart by County (Three-Year Age-Adjusted Prevalence % Adults). A copy of the NDPP with a set of push pins appears below with an overlay of prediabetes prevalence by county (three-year average prevalence). The 135 evaluation team began working through recommendations and/or corrections identified by CDC during the 135 Year 4 Technical Review process. Final revisions were due May 3, 216. o Updated information was needed to truly reflect statewide data o YRBS data was updated o Other data was updated to accommodate the changes outlined by CDC

5 Burden of Diabetes in SC DSC Surveillance Council Burden of Diabetes in the United States National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) Population based nationally representative sample of the United States population Diabetes Self reported doctor diagnosed diabetes Undiagnosed diabetes HbA1c 6.5%; or fasting plasma glucose 126 mg/dl 1
