TLDR
This study of matched capillary and plasma glucose results concludes that while it is appropriate to use fasting capillary glucose levels to determine the prevalence of diabetes in populations, it should not be used to reliably diagnose diabetes in individuals.About:

Forecasting the burden of type 2 diabetes mellitus in Qatar to 2050: A novel modeling approach
TL;DR: A novel mathematical modeling approach is developed and demonstrated to forecast the burden of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and to investigate T2DM epidemiology for the purpose of informing public health policy and programming, predicted to continue in the next decades.

Prevalence of metabolic syndrome and common metabolic components in high altitude farmers and herdsmen at 3700 m in Tibet.
TL;DR: The overall prevalence of metabolic syndrome in high altitude farmers and herdsmen in Tibet was lower compared to other high altitude natives, while its components (hyperglycemia, obesity, and high blood pressure) were higher than in otherHigh altitude communities.

Validation of capillary glucose measurements to detect glucose intolerance or type 2 diabetes mellitus in the general population.
TL;DR: Capillary glucose measurements are suitable for use in epidemiological studies to diagnose and detect type 2 diabetes and normal glucose tolerance and use of capillary measurements can result in cost-effective inclusion schemes in Epidemiological studies.
