Question about readings England/USA

As you can see I live in England and here were measure blood glucose readings in mmol/L but I believe in America and other countries it is measured in a different way in mg/dl.
As I read these posts while I am used to bg readings of 6.5 and 7 many other posts are quoting figures more like 170 or 130. Does anyone have a comparison table or conversion figure so I calculate one from another. I find this a bit confusing when trying to understand these posts.
