Decoding Type 2 Diabetes

1. China: 140.9 million adults (20-79 years) living with diabetes[6]

3. Pakistan: 33.0 million adults living with diabetes[6]

4. United States: While not explicitly stated in the search results, the U.S. is consistently mentioned among the top countries[2][5]

5. Indonesia: Mentioned as one of the top countries, but specific numbers are not provided[8]

6. Brazil: Listed among the countries with high diabetes prevalence[2]

7. Japan: Included in the list of top nations with high diabetes prevalence[8]

8. Russia: Mentioned among the countries with high diabetes rates[8]

9. Italy: Listed in the top 10 nations with high diabetes prevalence[8]

10. Bangladesh: Included in the top 10 countries with highest diabetes prevalence[8]

It's important to note that these figures represent the total number of adults living with diabetes, not the annual number of new diagnoses. The majority of these cases are likely to be type 2 diabetes, as it is the most common form in adults[2].

Worldwide, approximately 537 million adults (aged 20-79) are living with diabetes as of 2021[3][4].- This number is projected to rise to 643 million by 2030 and 783 million by 2045[3][4].

Over 3 in 4 adults with diabetes live in low- and middle-income countries[3][4].

While specific annual diagnosis rates are not provided, these figures highlight the significant and growing global burden of diabetes, particularly type 2 diabetes, which is the most prevalent form in adults.
