Luk AOY, Ke C, Lau ESH, et al. - Researchers conducted a retrospective cohort study to describe the secular trend of the incidence of type 1 and T2D individuals in Hong Kong between 2002 and 2015 using population-level data. The study population consisted with a sum of 562,022 cases of incident diabetes (T1D individuals [n = 2,426]: mean age at diagnosis is 32.5 years, 48.4% men; T2D individuals [n = 559,596]: mean age at diagnosis is 61.8 years, 51.9% men). In people aged < 40 years, There was an increase in the incidence of T2D individuals and stabilization in people aged ≥ 40 years. It was demonstrated that the incidence of T1D individuals continued to climb in people aged < 20 years but remained constant in other age groups. In Asia, the results raised concerns over the escalating burden of young-onset diabetes.
