It was estimated that as of 2023, around **** million people in the United States had been diagnosed with diabetes. The number of people diagnosed with diabetes in the U.S. has increased in recent years and the disease is now a major health issue. Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, accounting for ******percent of all deaths. What is prediabetes? A person is considered to have prediabetes if their blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. As of 2021, it was estimated that around ** million men and ** million women in the United States had prediabetes. However, according to the CDC, around ** percent of these people do not know they have this condition. Not only does prediabetes increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, but also increases the risk of heart disease and stroke. The states with the highest share of adults who had ever been told they have prediabetes are California, Hawaii, and New Mexico. The prevalence of diabetes in the United States As of 2023, around *** percent of adults in the United States had been diagnosed with diabetes, an increase from ****percent in the year 2000. Diabetes is much more common among older adults, with around ** percent of those aged 60 years and older diagnosed with diabetes, compared to just ****percent of those aged 20 to 39 years. The states with the highest prevalence of diabetes among adults are West Virginia, Mississippi, and Louisiana, while Utah and Colorado report the lowest rates. In West Virginia, around ** percent of adults have been diagnosed with diabetes.

Around ** percent of the global adult population suffered from diabetes in 2024 - by the year 2050 this number is expected to rise to ** percent. Diabetes, or diabetes mellitus, refers to a group of metabolic disorders that result in chronic high blood sugar levels. Diabetes can lead to serious health complications, such as cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, and stroke, and is now among the top ten leading causes of death worldwide. Prevalence Diabetes is a global problem affecting many countries. China currently has the largest number of diabetics worldwide, with some *** million people suffering from the disease. However, the highest prevalence of diabetes is found in Pakistan, followed by the Marshall Islands and Kuwait. Rates of diabetes have increased in many countries in recent years, as have rates of obesity, one of the leading risk factors for the disease. Outlook It is predicted that diabetes will continue to be a problem in the future. Africa is expected to see a *** percent increase in the number of diabetics in the region from 2024 to 2050, while North America and the Caribbean are expected to see an increase of ** percent. In 2050, China is predicted to be the country with the highest number of diabetics worldwide, with the United States accounting for the fourth-highest number.

In 2023, the prevalence of diagnosed diabetes in the United States among people aged 18 and over amounted to *** percent. This was an increase from *** percent in the year 2000. How many people in the United States have diabetes? It was estimated that in 2023, almost **** million people in the United States had been diagnosed with diabetes. The number of people living with diabetes has increased over the past few decades, with only **** million people living with diabetes in the year 1980. Diabetes in the United States is more common among older adults, with around ** percent of those aged 60 years and older diagnosed with diabetes, compared to ** percent of those aged 40 to 59 years. Leading diabetic states In 2023, the U.S. states with the highest prevalence of diagnosed diabetes were West Virginia, Mississippi, and Louisiana. Just over ** percent of adults in West Virginia had diabetes that year. In Utah, just under ***** percent of adults have been diagnosed with diabetes, the lowest share in the United States.

In 2024, around 16 percent of adults between the ages of 20 and 79 had diabetes in Turkey. Other selected countries with a high prevalence of diabetes that year included Mexico, the United States, and Portugal. Diabetes is a metabolic disease that causes high blood sugar levels. Diabetes worldwide In 2024, an estimated 11 percent of the global adult population had diabetes. In concrete numbers, there were about 589 million diabetic adults (20-79 years) worldwide in 2024, and this total is predicted to grow to approximately 852.5 million by the year 2050. Spending per patient The country that spent the most on patients with diabetes in 2024 was Switzerland. At that time, providing for a diabetic patient in Switzerland cost an average of over 12 thousand U.S. dollars. The United States stood in second place, spending about 10,500 U.S. dollars per patient. In the same year, the ten countries by lowest average spending per person with diabetes were all African and Asian countries. Bangladesh had the lowest annual diabetes-related health expenditures per person, with just 74 U.S. dollars.

Population-based county-level estimates for diagnosed (DDP), undiagnosed (UDP), and total diabetes prevalence (TDP) were acquired from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) for the years 2004-2012 (Evaluation 2017). Prevalence estimates were calculated using a two-stage approach. The first stage used National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data to predict high fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels (≥126 mg/dL) and/or hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) levels (≥6.5% [48 mmol/mol]) based on self-reported demographic and behavioral characteristics (Dwyer-Lindgren, Mackenbach et al. 2016). This model was then applied to Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) data to impute high FPG and/or A1C status for each BRFSS respondent (Dwyer-Lindgren, Mackenbach et al. 2016). The second stage used the imputed BRFSS data to fit a series of small area models, which were used to predict the county-level prevalence of each of the diabetes-related outcomes (Dwyer-Lindgren, Mackenbach et al. 2016). Diagnosed diabetes was defined as the proportion of adults (age 20+ years) who reported a previous diabetes diagnosis, represented as an age-standardized prevalence percentage. Undiagnosed diabetes was defined as proportion of adults (age 20+ years) who have a high FPG or HbA1C but did not report a previous diagnosis of diabetes. Total diabetes was defined as the proportion of adults (age 20+ years) who reported a previous diabetes diagnosis and/or had a high FPG/HbA1C. The age-standardized diabetes prevalence (%) was used as the outcome. The EQI was constructed for 2000-2005 for all US counties and is composed of five domains (air, water, built, land, and sociodemographic), each composed of variables to represent the environmental quality of that domain. Domain-specific EQIs were developed using principal components analysis (PCA) to reduce these variables within each domain while the overall EQI was constructed from a second PCA from these individual domains (L. C. Messer et al., 2014). To account for differences in environment across rural and urban counties, the overall and domain-specific EQIs were stratified by rural urban continuum codes (RUCCs) (U.S. Department of Agriculture, 2015).
