Abstract in brief

  • The study projects that the number of people with Type 2 diabetes in Germany will rise significantly from around 69 million in 2015 to between 107 million and 123 million by 2040, depending on various trends in incidence and mortality rates.
  • Future projections that consider decreasing mortality rates and changing incidence trends give a more realistic estimate, showing the growth will be between 54% and 77%.
  • The analysis highlights that changes in the rate at which new cases occur (incidence) are the main factors influencing this increase, and simply using current prevalence rates with future population structures may underestimate the true future burden of Diabetes.]
