This study aims to estimate the excess risk in mortality associated with type 1 and type 2 diabetes, considering demographic and social factors.
Cohort study using linked national administrative and survey data from 4,437,453 individuals followed from 2014 to 2019.
Included 259,548 individuals with diabetes, stratified by type (T1D and T2D) and sex.
Utilized adjusted Cox’s proportional hazards models to analyze mortality risks.
Significant mortality hazard associated with diabetes types, particularly high for those aged 0–19 years.
Increased mortality risk correlated with higher deprivation levels, amplified for those with T1D and attenuated for T2D.
Similar mortality patterns observed between males and females.
