Trends in incidence of youth-onset type 1 and type 2 diabetes in the USA, 2002–18: results from the population-based SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth study

a significant upward trend in the age-, sex- and race/ethnicity-adjusted incidence was observed from 19·5 cases per 100,000 youths per year in 2002–2003 to 22·2 cases per 100,000 youths per year in 2017–2018, with an annual rate of increase of 2·02%, (95% CI 1·54, 2·49%)

Youth type 1 diabetes incidence rose 2.02 percent a year (95% CI 1.54–2.49), from 19.5 to 22.2 per 100,000 between 2002–03 and 2017–18. Type 2 incidence rose 5.31 percent a year, from 9.0 to 17.9 per 100,000. The steepest type 1 rise was among Asian and Pacific Islander youth, 4.84 percent a year.
