Background Type 2 diabetes poses an increasing disease burden in South Korea. The development and management of type are closely related to lifestyle socioeconomic factors, which have undergone substantial changes over the past few decades, including during COVID-19 pandemic. Objective This study aimed investigate long-term trends prevalence, awareness, treatment, control. It also determine whether there were alterations pandemic these more pronounced within specific demographic groups. Methods examined control a representative sample 139,786 Koreans aged >30 years, using data from National Health Nutrition Examination Survey covering period 1998 2022. Weighted linear regression binary logistic performed calculate weighted β coefficients or odds ratios. Stratified analyses based on sex, age, region residence, obesity status, educational background, household income, smoking status. (difference) was calculated analyze trend difference between prepandemic To identify groups susceptible diabetes, we estimated interaction terms for each factor Results From 2022, consistent increase prevalence observed among Koreans, with notable rise 15.61% (95% CI 14.83-16.38) Awareness followed U-shaped curve, bottoming out at 64.37% 61.79-66.96) 2013 2015 before 72.56% 70.39-74.72) Treatment increased time, peaking 68.33% 65.95-70.71) Control participants showed no change, maintaining rate 29.14% 26.82-31.47) 2020 while treated improved 30.68% 27.88-33.48). During pandemic, steepening curves awareness treatment. However, slope being increased, change Older populations individuals lower level exhibited less improvement than younger educated individuals. People income experienced deceleration Conclusions Over recent decade, has been steeper observed. heterogeneous across different population groups, underscoring need targeted interventions address disparities improve populations.

Korean National Burden of Disease: The Importance of Diabetes Management

Diabetes & Metabolism Journal, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 48(4), P. 518 - 530

Published: July 29, 2024

Diagnosing the current health status and disease burden in a population is crucial for public interventions. The ability to compare of different diseases through single measure, such as disability-adjusted life years has become feasible continues be produced updated Global Burden Diseases (GBD) study. However, values GBD study do not accurately reflect unique situation specific country with various circumstances. In response, Korean National Disease (KNBD) was conducted estimate Koreans by considering Korea’s cultural context utilizing available data sources at national level. Both studies identified non-communicable diseases, diabetes mellitus (DM), primary cause among Koreans. extent interventions currently being central local governments does align severity burden. This review suggests that despite high DM South Korea, policies may fully address its impact, underscoring need expanded chronic management programs shift towards prevention-focused healthcare paradigms.

Background: This study aimed to examine trends in the prevalence, incidence, metabolic characteristics, and management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among young adults South Korea.Methods: Young with T2DM were defined as individuals aged 19 39 years who met diagnostic criteria for T2DM. Data from Korean National Health Insurance Service-Customized Database (2010–2020, <i>n</i>=225,497–372,726) analyzed evaluate profiles, comorbidities, antidiabetic drug prescription.

Published: April 16, 2024

Precision diagnosis is the keystone of clinical medicine. In East Asians, classical type 1 diabetes uncommon in patients with youngonset diagnosed before age 40, whom a family history, obesity, and beta-cell kidney dysfunction are key features. Young-onset affects one five Asian adults clinic settings; however, it often misclassified, resulting delayed or non-targeted treatment. Complex aetiologies, long disease duration, aggressive course, lack evidence-based guidelines have contributed to variable care standards premature death these young patients. The high burden comorbidities, notably mental illness, highlights numerous knowledge gaps related this silent killer. majority adult managed as part heterogeneous population various ages diagnosis. A multidisciplinary team led by physicians special interest young-onset will help improve precision address their physical, mental, behavioral health. To end, payors, planners, providers need align re-design practice environment gather data systematically during routine elucidate multicausality diabetes, treat multiple targets, outcomes vulnerable individuals.

A Machine Learning-Based Prediction Model for Diabetic Kidney Disease in Korean Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Journal of Clinical Medicine, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(6), P. 2065 - 2065

Published: March 18, 2025

Background/Objectives: Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a major cause of end-stage and leading contributor to morbidity mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, predictive models for DKD onset Korean T2DM remain underexplored. This study aimed develop validate machine learning (ML)-based prediction model this population. Methods: retrospective utilized electronic health records from six secondary or tertiary hospitals Korea. The Jeonbuk National University Hospital cohort was used development (ratio training: test data, 8:2), whereas datasets five other supported external validation. We employed multiple ML algorithms, including lasso, ridge, elastic net regression; random forest; XGBoost; support vector machines; neural networks. incorporated demographic variables, comorbidities, medications, laboratory results. Results: Among 5120 T2DM, 1361 (26.6%) developed DKD. In the cohort, XGBoost achieved highest performance (AUC: 0.8099), followed by forest logistic regression (AUCs: 0.7977–0.8019). External validation confirmed model’s robustness high AUCs (XGBoost: 0.8113, models: 0.8228–0.8271). Key factors included age; baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate; creatinine, hemoglobin, hemoglobin A1c levels. Conclusions: Our findings highlight potential ML-based approaches predicting T2DM. superior underscores their clinical utility. supports generalizability. valuable tool early risk assessment

Furthermore, obesity and/or abdominal obesity, which are major risk factors type 2 mellitus (T2DM), progressively increasing, particularly among young adults. Many patients with T2DM asymptomatic can accompany various complications time diagnosis, as well chronic develop duration increases. Thus, proper diagnosis essential care.
