The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) is the umbrella organization of more than 200 national diabetes associations in more than 160 countries. In addition to promoting diabetes care and  deep sleep diabetes remedy prevention, IDF tracks the facts of diabetes and diabetic patients worldwide.

​

The Federation publishes the Diabetes Atlas, a collection of diabetes-related facts and observations, issued periodically. Atlas is based on data supplied by its members. Because these are national associations, the facts and figures published by the IDF are considered quite reliable.

According to the 6th edition of the IDF Diabetes Atlas published in 2013, the total population of the world is 2.2 billion. It is expected to reach Rs 8 billion in 20 years.

​

It has a total population of 4.6 billion adults and is projected to reach 5.9 billion by 203535. The IDF defines an adult as a 20 -–-year-old, which is a potential age range for developing type 2 diabetes.

​

According to the Diabetes Atlas, out of 38,320 million people worldwide, or 6.6 million adults (–.–%) have been diagnosed with diabetes for 20 years. About half of all adults with diabetes are 0-aged years, at which age people are at their most productive stage of life.

The number of people with type 2 diabetes is increasing in every country. If the current trend continues, the IDF expects more than 20 million diabetics to be diagnosed by 2035, an increase of 55%, with one in ten having adult diabetes.

​

Uncontrolled diabetes

Type 2 diabetes can be unchanged for many reasons. Some symptoms appear in the early years of the disease. Moreover, complications vary so widely that, despite the symptoms, diabetes cannot be considered a cause.

In 2013, FF2 million diabetic patients had an IDF of 1,175 million who were illiterate. I must admit that the first time I read it, 46% of diabetics are unaware. What if you don't know how to calculate something?

​

Estimating the number of undiagnosed diabetics is relatively easy. All IDFs should arrange testing for a sample of people living in a particular area. Tests conducted by IDF's national partners identify diabetes, both known and unknown, and it is a simple math exercise to expand the overall population with high accuracy.

Most (but not all) people know they have the disease, they are doing something to overcome their diabetes. The problem with diagnostic diabetes is that diabetics do not manage blood sugar levels and can develop complications such as kidney disease, heart failure, retinopathy and neuropathy, without knowing it themselves.

​

Regional variation

The Diabetes Atlas provides data from 21 countries that IDF divides into seven regions: Africa, Europe, the Middle East and North Africa, North America and the Caribbean, South and Central America, Southeast Asia and the Western Pacific.

The IDF estimates that -0% of diabetics live in low- and middle-income countries where the disease is growing rapidly and is at risk.


However, the prevalence of diabetes varies widely from region to region and country to country. It also varies widely across regions ... to some extent suggests that groups of countries in regions need to be modified by the IDF.

While adults in the Western Pacific region (20––– years of age) have diabetes, some countries in the region have a high proportion of adult diabetics. In Toklau, for example, 37 37.5% of adults are diabetics. The federal states of Micronesia account for 35 to 35%.

In the Middle East and North Africa, about 11% of adults have diabetes. Although this is an average for the entire region and the figure is much higher for the Arab Gulf states, the average is double, with Saudi Arabia accounting for 224% of adults, Kuwait 223.1% and Qatar 22.9%.

​

​

Infectious diabetes varies from region to region. In some countries in sub-Saharan Africa, up to 90% of diabetics remain unchanged, mainly due to lack of resources and priorities. In contrast, approximately - / people with diabetes are not detected in high-income countries.

​

Diabetes is on the rise in many countries with rapid economic growth, diet, changing population, increasing urbanization, reduced physical activity, and unhealthy behavior. However, many governments are unaware of the growing crisis and the potential for serious consequences, which could affect the development of their country.

Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT)

The IDF estimates that about 31.16 billion people or 6.9% of adults (20– - -) have impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). By 203535 this number is projected to increase to 47,471 million (.0.0% of the world's adult population).

This is serious, because I.G.
