4-FOLD RISE IN DIABETES CASES SINCE '90 GLOBALLY

About 82.8 crore people around the world are estimated to be living with diabetes in 2022, with over a quarter in India, according to an analysis published in The Lancet journal ahead of World Diabetes Day observed every year on November 14.

The figure of 82.8 crore is over four times the number in 1990, with the largest increase in low and middle-income countries (LMICs), researchers forming the Non-Communicable Disease Risk Factor Collaboration (NCD-RisC) said. Between 1990 and 2022, rates of diabetes treatment stagnated at low levels in many of the same LMICs, where cases of the disease drastically increased, resulting in 44.5 crore adults aged 30 and over with the metabolic condition globally (nearly 60%) who did not receive treatment in 2022, the researchers said.
