Cross‐country inequalities in disease burden and care quality of chronic kidney disease due to type 2 diabetes mellitus, 1990–2021: Findings from the global burden of disease study 2021
Authors' conclusion
Our study highlights considerable disparities in the burden and care quality of CKD-T2DM. Regions experiencing an increasing burden and a declining care quality simultaneously underscore the need for further research and tailored health interventions.
Study context
- Population
- Countries/territories, global; CKD due to T2D (CKD-T2DM), 1990–2021
Methodological detailstrend analysis (estimated annual percentage change), cross-country inequality analysis (slope index of inequality, concentration index)
- Trend analysis (estimated annual percentage change)
- Cross-country inequality analysis (slope index of inequality, concentration index)
Primary result
As reported in the abstract
Estimated annual percentage change of global ASDR (increased); 95% CI 0.75, 0.87
0.81
Estimated annual percentage change of age-standardized quality-of-care index (QCI) (slightly decreased); 95% CI −0.09, −0.07
−0.08
Further findings
Association with socio-demographic index (SDI)
- ASDR escalated with increasing SDI, peaking at mid-level SDI, then decreased
- Age-standardized QCI was higher with increasing SDI
