Researchers are helping diabetics put their Type 2 diabetes into remission, where the blood sugar levels are kept within a healthy range. For Type 1, scientists are looking for ways to prevent the immune system’s attack on beta cells, which causes diabetes. These cells, located in the pancreas, produce the insulin people need to live. As of yet, there is no cure for diabetes mellitus; however, scientists are researching ways to make diabetes harmless one day.

Diabetes continues to be a significant global health concern, with the Western Pacific region reporting the highest number of diabetes-related deaths in 2024, with around 1.2 million.

Diabetes Mellitus death rates by county, all races (includes Hispanic/Latino), all sexes, all ages, 2019-2023. Death data were provided by the National Vital Statistics System. Death rates (deaths per 100,000 population per year) are age-adjusted to the 2000 US standard population (20 age groups: <1, 1-4, 5-9, ... , 80-84, 85-89, 90+). Rates calculated using SEER*Stat. Population counts for denominators are based on Census populations as modified by the National Cancer Institute. The US Population Data File is used for mortality data. The Average Annual Percent Change is based onthe APCs calculated by the Joinpoint Regression Program (Version 4.9.0.0). Due to data availability issues, the time period used in the calculation of the joinpoint regression model may differ for selected counties. Counties with a (3) after their name may have their joinpoint regresssion model calculated using a different time period due to data availability issues.
