•  In  absolute  terms  – 113.9  million  in  China  (largest  in  the  world)  – 1  in  4  of  all  cases  worldwide  are  in  China  – 29.1  million  in  US  

•  In  relaKve  terms  – 11.6%  of  Chinese  adults  in  2010  – 9.3%  of  US  populaKon  in  2012    (12.3%  of  people  aged  ≥20  )

An  ongoing  challenge  •  Develop  diabetes  at  younger  age  and  lower  BMI  

– High  prevalence  of  diabetes  despite  lower  levels  of  obesity  –  “normal-­‐weight  metabolically  obese”  

•  NutriKon  transiKon  –  Fast  food  and  refined  carbohydrates  (e.g.  white  rice)  

•  Economic  development  and  urbanizaKon  –  Sedentary  occupaKons  in  a  service-­‐led,  high  value-­‐added  economy  

•  Life  style  trends    –  Reduced  physical  acKvity  – High  smoking  rates  (52.9%  of  men)  

•  Macro  impact  of  socioeconomic  development

“Rule  of  Halves”  

•  69.9%  are  unaware  of  their  diabetes  status  – US:  27.8%  

•  Only  25.8%  are  receiving  treatment  for  diabetes  – Of  which,  only  39.7%  had  adequate  glycaemic  control  (HbA1c  below  7.0%)  

•  Underdeveloped  and  unequal  health  care  access  •  Diabetes  treatment  guidelines  largely  based  on  evidence  from  non-­‐Asian  populaKons

Economic  Cost  

•  China  spends  RMB  173.4b  (USD  25  billion)  annually  on  direct  diabetes  treatment  – 13%  of  total  medical  spending  – US:  direct  medical  costs  of  $176b  plus  indirect  costs  of  $69b  

•  Projected  annual  cost  of  RMB  360b  (USD  60b)  by  2030

Incidence  and  Prevalence  

•  Counted  as  an  incident  case  in  the  year  of  diagnosis  date,  then  excluded  from  the  numerator  and  denominator  for  subsequent  years  

•  PaKents  with  a  diagnosis  date  before  Jan  1,  2007  were  classed  as  pre-­‐exisKng  diabetes  and  excluded  from  the  incidence  figures.    

•  New  cases  were  assumed  to  have  occurred  at  the  beginning  of  each  calendar  year;  thus,  the  person-­‐Kme  at-­‐risk  was:      (Mid-­‐year  populaKon  aged  20y  or  over  –  Cases  of  diabetes  on  January  1  of  that  year)  x  1  year  

•  Prevalence  was  calculated  as  the  number  of  diabetes  paKents  alive  on  January  1  divided  by  the  Hong  Kong  populaKon  esKmate  (aged  20y  or  over)  on  January  1  

•  PopulaKon  esKmates  of  residents  based  on  Government  Census  &  StaKsKcs  Department  published  figures

Measuring  gains  in  health  status  

•  Assessed  changes  in  mean  modifiable  5-­‐year  risk  using  UKPDS  and  Hong  Kong-­‐specific  (CUHK)  risk  predicKon  models  

•  Compared  across  four  2-­‐year  periods:  2006-­‐07,  2008-­‐09,  2010-­‐11  and  2012-­‐13  

•  Calculated  the  latest  risk  esKmates  in  each  period  keeping  age  (and  diabetes  duraKon)  at  baseline  values  

•  Thus  the  difference  between  risk  esKmates  reflected  changes  in  risk  factors  potenKally  ajributable  to  clinical  care  (modifiable  risk)
