QNo.6350241の続きです宜しくお願いします．ところどころにどう訳そうか迷うところがありました．また，例によってしっくりしない訳になってしまいました． Staggering stats: The number of U.S. adults aged 65 and over living with certain chronic conditions has increased in recent years. Staggering stats: The number of U.S. adults aged 65 and over living with certain chronic conditions has increased in recent years. The percentage of older adults living with diabetes has doubled, from 9.9 percent in 1984 to 18.4 percent in 2006-2008, according to statistics provided by the CDC. The number living with heart disease has risen in that same time period from 16.4 percent to 31.6 percent (although this increase could partly be due to better detection methods). Rising rates of chronic disease have been mirrored by rising rates in obesity, which is known to be a major risk factor for heart disease, cancer and diabetes. 呆然とする状態：特定の持病もち状態の米国の６５才あるいはそれ以上の老齢生活者の数は近年増加している．ＣＤＣ（疾病管理予防センター）により提供された統計（量）によれば，1984の9.9%から2006-2008年の18%の2倍になった．ある程度，心臓病の増加量は，改善された検出方法によるだろうが，心臓病の生活者の数は同時期に16.4％から31.6%に上昇した．慢性病の上昇した割合は，肥満の増加した割合に反映された．そしてそれは，心臓病および糖尿病の主要因として知られている．

こんにちは。こちらにも引き続きお邪魔します。 最初の文のstatsはstatistics と同じことなので、統計と訳せます。 驚くべき統計：ある特定の慢性疾患を持つ６５歳以上のアメリカ人高齢者が近年増加している。CDCが提供した統計によると、糖尿病を抱える高齢者は１９８４年に９．９％だったのが、２００６－２００８年には１８．４％となり、２倍になっている。心臓病を抱える高齢者の数は同時期に１６．４％から３１．６％に上昇した（この増加は一部、検出方法の改善によるものだろう)。慢性疾患の上昇率は肥満の増加率が反映しているが、肥満は心疾患、癌、糖尿病の主要因として知られている。

    和訳しましたが，しっくりしません．宜しくお願いします． How to Grow Old Gracefully U.S. residents might be living longer these days, but more and more Americans have chronic diseases, such as diabetes, which decrease their lifespan and boost medical costs. Some 133 million adults - almost half the adult population - have some type of chronic health condition, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). With such staggering statistics, you might think illness and impairment are synonymous with aging. But experts say old age need not be marked by disease and disability. Older adults can take action, even well into their 60s and 70s, to reduce the risk of developing chronic disease and avoid injury. "I think the old myth was somehow after age 60, 65, there's just nothing you can do anymore," said Margaret Moore, a public health advisor for the CDC's Healthy Aging Program. But really, "there are lots of things you can do to improve your function [and] your health well into older age," she said. Among the beneficial behaviors: Exercise, stretching, preventative measures such as flu shots and disease screening, and even a generally optimistic outlook on life. "There's certainly going to be some changes that occur with getting older," Moore said, "but it doesn't have to mean disability, it doesn't have to mean disease." 上品な老人となる方法 米国居住者は人生が長くなりつつあったかもしれないが、今日、増々多くの米国人は寿命を短くし、医療費を押上げる糖尿病のような慢性病になっている．疾病管理予防センターによれば、約1億３３００万人の成人（成人住民のほとんど半分）は慢性の健康状態である。このように 呆然とさせられる統計では、あなたは病気を考えた方がよく、機能的障害は老化と同義語である。しかし，専門家は述べる．老年は病気や身体障害によるものではない．年輩の大人は行動を起こさせる．（以降？） 「私は老齢の根拠の無い説は，何故か６０，６５才の後と考え，それ以上あなたができることは全く何もない」とＣＤＳの健康的老化プログラムの公衆衛生相談員 Margaret Mooreは述べた．「ほんとうだろうか？　老年におけるあなたの機能およびよりよい健康を改善するためにあなたができる多くのことがある」と彼女は述べた．恩恵を与えるような行動．（すなわち）運動，ストレッチング，インフルエンザの注射および病気のスクリーニングのような予防手段，更に人生における一般的に楽天的な態度「確かに年をとることに伴う幾つかの変化がありそうである．」とMooreは述べた．「しかし，それは能力障害，不健全な状態を意味しない」

    以下の英文の和訳をしていただきたいです。 14 November 2013 – Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon today urged lowering the number of people living with diabetes – increasingly younger and poorer – by changing unhealthy lifestyles that include poor diets and a lack of exercise. “In today's world of plenty, it is shameful that so many people lack access to healthy foods,” Mr. Ban stated in his message for World Diabetes Day, observed annually on 14 November. Instead of relying on fast foods and quick solutions, he called on countries and communities “to support smallholder and family farmers, foster sustainable agriculture and encourage people to eat healthful produce and support physical activity”. Approximately 350 million people are currently living with diabetes and the number is expected to double between 2005 and 2030, according to projections by the UN World Health Organization (WHO). Earlier this year, countries meeting at the World Health Assembly adopted a Global Action Plan for the Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable Diseases calling on countries to stop the rise in obesity and the associated rise in diabetes. “On World Diabetes Day, I call on Governments to make good on their commitments to address non-communicable diseases, including by fostering sustainable food production and consumption,” Mr. Ban said, “and I encourage all people to minimize their personal risk.” Diabetes – which occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin, or when the body cannot effectively use the insulin it produces - has become one of the major causes of premature illness and death in most countries, mainly through the increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). More than 80 per cent of people with diabetes live in low- and middle-income countries and are frequently between 35 and 64 ages old, WHO reported, adding that early diagnosis and proper treatment are key to controlling the disease. “Nearly one hundred years after insulin was first used to save the life of a diabetic patient, people around the world still die because they cannot access this hormone,” Mr. Ban stated. Started by WHO and the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), the Day is celebrated on 14 November to mark the birthday of Frederick Banting who, along with Charles Best, was instrumental in the discovery of insulin in 1922, a life-saving treatment for diabetes patients. よろしくお願いします。
