Overview

This observational analysis reports a rise in diabetes prevalence among Thai adults, highlighting gaps in awareness and treatment.

Key Points

  • The prevalence of diabetes among Thai adults increased from 7.5% in 2004 to 10.1% in 2020, with a rising concern for untreated diabetes.
  • Only 62.8% of individuals were aware of their diabetes diagnosis in 2020, with just 20.5% achieving controlled blood glucose levels.
  • Factors such as younger age and lower socioeconomic status were linked to unawareness and untreated diabetes among the population.
  • Strengthening diabetes management requires improved screening and collaboration among healthcare professionals and communities.
