AI Article Synopsis
- The study examines the growing issue of Type 2 diabetes and prediabetes in India by analyzing lab data from nearly 2 million adults in 2023, highlighting significant state-by-state variations in prevalence.
- Results indicate that 22.25% of adults have prediabetes and 27.18% have diabetes, with the highest rates in Odisha and the lowest in Jammu & Kashmir, and a marked increase in diabetes prevalence among males and working-age individuals.
- The findings underline the necessity for regular health screenings and suggest that dietary factors, particularly grain consumption, play a crucial role in managing and understanding these conditions.
Article Abstract
Background: The relentless rise in Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and prediabetes presents a complex challenge to India's healthcare system. This study analyses the prevalence and trends of these conditions in adults across Indian states using laboratory data collected during 2023.
Methods: HbA1c values from 19,66,449 samples from adults alongside demographic and geographic details were retrospectively analysed. Data were stratified by state, age, and gender and evaluated against national statistics parameters such as food consumption and socio-economic status.
Results: Substantial regional variation was seen across the country where 22.25% of the tested population was considered having prediabetes, and 27.18% with diabetes. Odisha had the highest rates, while J&K reported the lowest. Gender-specific trends indicate an increase in prevalence of diabetes among males compared to females. Age-wise data stratification shows a significant burden of prediabetes and diabetes in the economically productive age groups. Correlations between disease prevalence and state-specific grain consumption were observed, suggesting dietary influences.
Conclusions: The reported prevalence of prediabetes and diabetes higher than previous studies highlights the importance of regular screening. The use of HbA1c for estimation as a long-term average blood sugar marker helps to identify previously undiagnosed diabetes. The correlation of prevalence with food production underscores the importance of diet in disease management.

Prevalence of complications and comorbidities associated with obesity: a health insurance claims analysis.
BMC Public Health
January 2025
Eli Lilly and Company, Indianapolis, IN, 46285, USA.
Background: Despite the substantial burden of obesity in the United States (US), data on the comprehensive range of comorbidities in different age groups is limited. This study assessed the prevalence of various comorbidities among people diagnosed with obesity (as per ICD-10 diagnosis code) across age cohorts and compared how they differ from people without obesity.
Methods: This cross-sectional study analyzed individuals from all four regions (Midwest, Northeast, South, and West) of the US who had continuous insurance coverage from 2018 to 2020, using a large health insurance claims database (Merative™ MarketScan).
A legume-enriched diet improves metabolic health in prediabetes mediated through gut microbiome: a randomized controlled trial.

Healthy dietary patterns rich in legumes can improve metabolic health, although their additional benefits in conjunction with calorie restriction have not been well-established. We investigated effects of a calorie-restricted, legume-enriched, multicomponent intervention diet compared with a calorie-restricted control diet in 127 Chinese prediabetes participants, living in Singapore. The study was a 16-week, single-blind, parallel-design, randomized controlled trial (n = 63 intervention group (IG), n = 64 control group (CG); mean ± SD age 62.

Department of Radiology, Shenzhen Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital (The Fourth Clinical Medical College of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine), Shenzhen, China.
Purpose: Intra-pancreatic fat deposition (IPFD) is closely associated with the onset and progression of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We aimed to develop an accurate and automated method for assessing IPFD on multi-echo Dixon MRI.
Materials And Methods: In this retrospective study, 534 patients from two centers who underwent upper abdomen MRI and completed multi-echo and double-echo Dixon MRI were included.
Association between dietary mineral intake and new onset diabetes/pre-diabetes after chronic pancreatitis.

Department of Gastroenterology, The Affiliated Hospital to Qingdao University, Qingdao, China.
Background And Aims: As the main type of pancreatic diabetes, patients with new diabetes after chronic pancreatitis are often difficult to manage and have poor prognosis. This study aimed to figure out the association between dietary mineral intake and glucose metabolism with chronic pancreatitis.
Method: The study included 114 patients with chronic pancreatitis, who were grouped based on the sequence of onset for chronic pancreatitis and diabetes: normoglycaemia after chronic pancreatitis (NCP), type 2 diabetes (T2DM), and new-onset diabetes or pre-diabetes after chronic pancreatitis (NODCP).
Association of dietary decanoic acid intake with diabetes or prediabetes: an analysis from NHANES 2005-2016.

Department of Cardiovascular Medicine, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, Nanchang, China.
Background: With the increasing prevalence of prediabetes and diabetes, exploring dietary factors associated with prediabetes and diabetes has become a global health research priority. This study aimed to assess the relationship between dietary decanoic acid (DDA) intake and the risk of diabetes and prediabetes.
Methods: Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005-2016 included 11,477 adult participants.
