Abstract :
Social capital is one of the important factors af-fecting population health (1). As an intangible social resource, it has important practical signifi-cance in the prevention and treatment of diabe-tes. Using the system review method, we have reviewed previous published literature and ana-lyzed the concept of social capital and its applica-tion to diabetes prevention and treatment. This study aimed to provide information and enlight-enment to effectively mobilize all resources that promote diabetes prevention and treatment. The study was significant and meaningful in the rela-tionship between social capital and diabetes, and it is the first study to conduct a review of this relationship.
