To assess national estimates and multi-decade trends in diabetes prevalence among adults in the United States across diverse demographic subgroups.
Conducted a serial cross-sectional epidemiological analysis of US adults comparing survey cycles from 1988-1994 through 2011-2012.
Evaluated diabetes prevalence according to established diagnostic criteria across the overall population and within racial and ethnic subgroups.
In 2011-2012, estimated diabetes prevalence ranged from 12% to 14% among US adults depending on diagnostic criteria, with higher prevalence among non-Hispanic black, non-Hispanic Asian, and Hispanic participants.
From 1988-1994 to 2011-2012, diabetes prevalence increased significantly in the overall adult population and across every evaluated subgroup.
