Introduction: From September 19 to 23, 2022, the 58th Annual Conference of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes will be held in Stockholm, Sweden, and some academic content has been disclosed
in advance.

The latest data from the International Diabetes Alliance (IDF) Diabetes Map released by this conference shows that in 2021, the global prevalence of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) in adults will be 9.
1%, and the number of people will reach 464 million, and it is expected that by 2045, this proportion will increase to 10.
0%, affecting 640 million adults.

464 million, the "diabetic reserve army" number is amazing!

Although diabetes is not diagnosed, once it enters prediabetes, it also means that the health risk is significantly increased
.

For countries without domestic data, the values are inferred
from similar countries with similar economies, races, geography and languages.

The global prevalence of IGT in 2021 is 9.

The current state of the global diabetes epidemic: 16% increase in two years! One in ten adults develop diabetes

Previously published data show that the number of adult diabetics worldwide will reach 537 million (10.

Globally, the number of people with diabetes in 2021: the Western Pacific is up to 206 million, Southeast Asia is 90 million, the Middle East and North Africa is 73 million, Europe is 61 million, North America and the Caribbean is 51 million, South America and Central America is 32 million, and Africa is 24 million

China Diabetes Report (2000-2045): 50% increase in 10 years, half of patients are not yet aware

The new version of the IDF map data shows that in the past 10 years (2011 to 2021), the number of diabetic patients in China has increased from 90 million to 140 million, an increase of 56%, of which about 72.

In the next 20 years, although the increase in the prevalence of diabetes in China will tend to decline, the total number of patients will increase to 164 million in 2030 and 175 million
in 2045.

The current situation of "pre-diabetic" patients in China:

➤ Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT): In 2021, about 170 million adults in China will have IGT, an increase of 6 times
compared with 2011.

➤ Fasting blood glucose damage (IFG): In 2021, about 27 million adults in China will have IFG, and this number may increase to about 30 million
in 2045.

Prevalence of "type 1 diabetes" in China:

➤ Number of new onset of type 1 diabetes: In 2021, the number of new outbreaks of type 1 diabetes in China will be 0.

➤ Number of type 1 diabetes patients: In 2021, the number of people with type 1 diabetes in China will be 29,600 from 0-14 years old and 56,000 from 0-19 years old

The prevalence of "gestational hyperglycemia" in China:

In 2021, the prevalence of gestational diabetes in China was 8.

Summary of this article

In summary, the global prevalence of diabetes and prediabetes is still on the rise, and the increase is large, the health burden caused by diabetes is still a major challenge for individuals, families and society, and there is an urgent need to implement interventions to delay and stop growth
