Diagnosed and undiagnosed diabetes among people aged 20 years or older, United States, 2010 Estimated percentage of people aged 20 years or older with diagnosed and undiagnosed diabetes, by age group, United States, 2005–2008 Explanation: This graph shows the estimated percentage of U.S. adults aged 20 years or older who had diabetes (diagnosed and undiagnosed) in the year 2005–2008 by age group. In 2005–2008, the estimated percentage of adults with diabetes was 3.7% among those aged 20–44 years, 13.7% among those aged 45–64 years, and 26.9% among those aged 65 years or older. Age 20 years or older: 25.6 million, or 11.3% of all people in this age group, have diabetes. Age 65 years or older: 10.9 million, or 26.9% of all people in this age group, have diabetes. Men: 13.0 million, or 11.8% of all men aged 20 years or older, have diabetes. Women: 12.6 million, or 10.8% of all women aged 20 years or older, have diabetes. Non-Hispanic whites: 15.7 million, or 10.2% of all non-Hispanic whites aged 20 years or older, have diabetes. Non-Hispanic blacks: 4.9 million, or 18.7% of all non-Hispanic blacks aged 20 years or older, have diabetes. Sufficient data are not available to estimate the total prevalence of diabetes (diagnosed and undiagnosed) for other U.S. racial/ethnic minority populations.

New cases of diagnosed diabetes among people younger than 20 years of age, United States, 2002–2005 This graph displays the estimated number of new cases of diagnosed diabetes in the year 2010 among U.S. adults aged 20 years or older by age group. In 2010, of the estimated 1.9 million new cases of diagnosed diabetes in people aged 20 years or older, about 465,000 were aged 20–44 years, about 1,052,000 were aged 45–64 years, and about 390,000 were aged 65 years or older. SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth is a multicenter study funded by CDC and NIH to examine diabetes (type 1 and type 2) among children and adolescents in the United States. SEARCH findings for the communities studied include the following: During 2002–2005, 15,600 youth were newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes annually, and 3,600 youth were newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes annually. Among youth aged <10 years, the rate of new cases was 19.7 per 100,000 each year for type 1 diabetes and 0.4 per 100,000 for type 2 diabetes. Among youth aged 10 years or older, the rate of new cases was 18.6 per 100,000 each year for type 1 diabetes and 8.5 per 100,000 for type 2 diabetes. Non-Hispanic white youth had the highest rate of new cases of type 1 diabetes (24.8 per 100,000 per year among those younger than 10 years and 22.6 per 100,000 per year among those aged 10–19 years). Type 2 diabetes was extremely rare among youth aged <10 years. While still infrequent, rates were greater among youth aged 10–19 years than in younger children, with higher rates among U.S. minority populations than in non-Hispanic whites. Among non-Hispanic white youth aged 10–19 years, the rate of new cases was higher for type 1 than for type 2 diabetes. For Asian/Pacific Islander and American Indian youth aged 10–19 years, the opposite was true—the rate of new cases was greater for type 2 than for type 1 diabetes. Among non-Hispanic black and Hispanic youth aged 10–19 years, the rates of new cases of type 1 and type 2 diabetes were similar.

Rate of new cases of type 1 and type 2 diabetes among youth aged <20 years, by race/ethnicity, 2002–2005 Rate of new cases of type 1 and type 2 diabetes among youth aged < 20 years, by race/ethnicity, 2002–2005 Explanation: This graph compares the incidence of type 1 and type 2 diabetes among children and adolescents younger than 20 years by age group and race/ethnicity. In the year 2002–2005, among children younger than 10 years, the estimated rate of new cases of type 1 diabetes was 19.7 per 100,000 per year, and the estimated rate of new cases of type 2 diabetes was 0.4 per 100,000 per year. Among children younger than 10 years with type 1 diabetes, the estimated rate of new cases was 24.8 per 100,000 per year among non-Hispanic whites; 15.7 per 100,000 per year among non-Hispanic blacks; 14.1 per 100,000 per year among Hispanics; 6.4 per 100,000 per year among Asians/Pacific Islanders; and 4.2 per 100,000 per year among American Indians. Among children younger than 10 years with type 2 diabetes, the estimated rate of new cases was 0.2 per 100,000 per year for non-Hispanic whites; 1.1 per 100,000 per year for non-Hispanic blacks; 0.5 per 100,000 per year for Hispanics; 0.6 per 100,000 per year for Asians/Pacific Islanders; and 0.4 per 100,000 per year for American Indians.  In the year 2002–2005, among children and adolescents aged 10–19 years, the estimated rate of new cases of type 1 diabetes was 18.6 per 100,000 per year, and the estimated rate of new cases of type 2 diabetes was 8.5 per 100,000 per year. Among children and adolescents aged 10–19 years with type 1 diabetes, the estimated rate of new cases was 22.6 per 100,000 per year among non-Hispanic whites; 15.7 per 100,000 per year among non-Hispanic blacks; 13.8 per 100,000 per year among Hispanics; 7.4 per 100,000 per year among Asians/Pacific Islanders; and 4.7 per 100,000 per year among American Indians. Among children and adolescents aged 10–19 years with type 2 diabetes, the estimated rate of new cases was 3.7 per 100,000 per year for non-Hispanic whites; 19.0 per 100,000 per year for non-Hispanic blacks; 11.6 per 100,000 per year for Hispanics; 12.1 per 100,000 per year for Asians/Pacific Islanders; and 32.0 per 100,000 per year for American Indians. <10 years 10–19 years Source: SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth Study NHW=non-Hispanic whites; NHB=non-Hispanic blacks; H=Hispanics; API=Asians/Pacific Islanders; AI=American Indians

Graph title: Percentage of adults with diagnosed diabetes receiving treatment with insulin or oral medication, United States, 2007–2009 Explanation: This graph displays the distribution of insulin and oral medication treatment among U.S. adults aged 20 years or older with diagnosed diabetes in the year 2007–2009. In 2007–2009, 12 percent were treated with insulin only, 14 percent received insulin and oral medication, 58 percent received oral medication only, and 16 percent received neither oral medication nor insulin.

Estimated lifetime risk of developing diabetes for individuals born in the United States in 2000 Graph Title: Estimated lifetime risk of developing diabetes for individuals born in the United States in 2000 One of three (33%) men and nearly 2 of 5 (39%) women born in the United States in 2000 will develop diabetes sometime during their lifetime. For men born in 2000, estimated lifetime risks of developing diabetes were 27% among non-Hispanic whites, 40% among non-Hispanic blacks, and 45% among Hispanics. For women born in 2000, estimated lifetime risks were 31% among non-Hispanic whites, 49% among non-Hispanic blacks, and 53% among Hispanics. Narayan et al, JAMA, 2003
