IMPORTANCE: Changes in the prevalence of youth-onset diabetes have previously been observed. OBJECTIVE: To estimate changes in prevalence of type 1 and type 2 diabetes in youths in the US from 2001 to 2017. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: In this cross-sectional observational study, individuals younger than 20 years with physician-diagnosed diabetes were enumerated from 6 areas in the US (4 geographic areas, 1 health plan, and select American Indian reservations) for 2001, 2009, and 2017. EXPOSURES: Calendar year. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: Estimated prevalence of physician-diagnosed type 1 and type 2 diabetes overall and by race and ethnicity, age, and sex. RESULTS: Among youths 19 years or younger, 4958 of 3.35 million had type 1 diabetes in 2001, 6672 of 3.46 million had type 1 diabetes in 2009, and 7759 of 3.61 million had type 1 diabetes in 2017; among those aged 10 to 19 years, 588 of 1.73 million had type 2 diabetes in 2001, 814 of 1.85 million had type 2 diabetes in 2009, and 1230 of 1.85 million had type 2 diabetes in 2017. The estimated type 1 diabetes prevalence per 1000 youths for those 19 years or younger increased significantly from 1.48 (95% CI, 1.44-1.52) in 2001 to 1.93 (95% CI, 1.88-1.98) in 2009 to 2.15 (95% CI, 2.10-2.20) in 2017, an absolute increase of 0.67 per 1000 youths (95%, CI, 0.64-0.70) and a 45.1% (95% CI, 40.0%-50.4%) relative increase over 16 years. The greatest absolute increases were observed among non-Hispanic White (0.93 per 1000 youths [95% CI, 0.88-0.98]) and non-Hispanic Black (0.89 per 1000 youths [95% CI, 0.88-0.98]) youths. The estimated type 2 diabetes prevalence per 1000 youths aged 10 to 19 years increased significantly from 0.34 (95% CI, 0.31-0.37) in 2001 to 0.46 (95% CI, 0.43-0.49) in 2009 to 0.67 (95% CI, 0.63-0.70) in 2017, an absolute increase of 0.32 per 1000 youths (95% CI, 0.30-0.35) and a 95.3% (95% CI, 77.0%-115.4%) relative increase over 16 years. The greatest absolute increases were observed among non-Hispanic Black (0.85 per 1000 youths [95% CI, 0.74-0.97]) and Hispanic (0.57 per 1000 youths [95% CI, 0.51-0.64]) youths. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: In 6 areas of the US from 2001 to 2017, the estimated prevalence of diabetes among children and adolescents increased for both type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
重要性:之前已经观察到青少年发病的糖尿病患病率发生了变化。 目的:估计美国青少年 1 型和 2 型糖尿病的患病率从 2001 年到 2017 年的变化情况。 设计、地点和参与者:在这项横断面观察性研究中,从美国 6 个地区(4 个地理区域、1 个健康计划和一些选择的美洲印第安人保留地)中,列举了年龄小于 20 岁、经医生诊断患有糖尿病的个体,时间范围为 2001 年、2009 年和 2017 年。 暴露因素:日历年份。 主要结局和测量指标:总体及按种族和族裔、年龄和性别划分的 1 型和 2 型糖尿病的估计患病率。 结果:在 19 岁或以下的青少年中,2001 年有 4958 例(3350 万人)患有 1 型糖尿病,2009 年有 6672 例(3460 万人)患有 1 型糖尿病,2017 年有 7759 例(3610 万人)患有 1 型糖尿病;在 10 至 19 岁的人群中,2001 年有 588 例(1730 万人)患有 2 型糖尿病,2009 年有 814 例(1850 万人)患有 2 型糖尿病,2017 年有 1230 例(1850 万人)患有 2 型糖尿病。对于 19 岁或以下的青少年,每 1000 名青少年中 1 型糖尿病的估计患病率从 2001 年的 1.48(95%CI,1.44-1.52)显著增加到 2009 年的 1.93(95%CI,1.88-1.98),到 2017 年的 2.15(95%CI,2.10-2.20),绝对值增加了 0.67(95%CI,0.64-0.70),16 年来相对增加了 45.1%(95%CI,40.0%-50.4%)。在非西班牙裔白人和非西班牙裔黑人群体中观察到的绝对增加最大,分别为每 1000 名青少年增加 0.93(95%CI,0.88-0.98)和 0.89(95%CI,0.88-0.98)。10 至 19 岁青少年中每 1000 名青少年中 2 型糖尿病的估计患病率从 2001 年的 0.34(95%CI,0.31-0.37)显著增加到 2009 年的 0.46(95%CI,0.43-0.49),到 2017 年的 0.67(95%CI,0.63-0.70),绝对值增加了 0.32(95%CI,0.30-0.35),16 年来相对增加了 95.3%(95%CI,77.0%-115.4%)。在非西班牙裔黑人和西班牙裔青少年中观察到的绝对增加最大,分别为每 1000 名青少年增加 0.85(95%CI,0.74-0.97)和 0.57(95%CI,0.51-0.64)。 结论和相关性:在美国 6 个地区,从 2001 年到 2017 年,儿童和青少年的 1 型和 2 型糖尿病的估计患病率都有所增加。
