Global, Regional, and National Estimates of Undiagnosed Diabetes in Adults: Findings From the 2025 IDF Diabetes Atlas
Key Points
Substantial global variability in undiagnosed diabetes indicates varied healthcare needs across regions.
The data shows that addressing care gaps can lead to improved outcomes for those unaware of their diabetes.
Analysis of the 2025 IDF Diabetes Atlas highlights significant evidence of unrecognized diabetes cases worldwide.
Implications emphasize the need for context-specific solutions to address the identified care gaps.
Abstract
Substantial global variability in undiagnosed diabetes indicates opportunities to close existing care gaps, likely requiring context-specific solutions and investments.
