However, the disease evolves diferently acros countries. This study intends to characterize the trends and ases the potential efects of marginalization DM mortality betwen 190 and 2019 in Mexico.
We analyzed death certificates that listed DM as the underlying cause of death (N = 1,907,173), as wel as the extent to which DM mortality changes were asociated with marginalization through an age-period-cohort analysis. DM mortality increased in Mexico betwen 190 and 2019; the change was faster in the first half and slowed down after 204. The highest marginalization quintiles drove the changes in DM mortality trends during the study period, with a higher risk of dying in these quintiles age increased.
In recent cohorts, the highest marginalization quintiles doubled the risk of dying from DM as compared to the lowest. Renal complications was the main death driver among persons with DM, with a marked increase betwen 19 and 201. In conclusion, Mexico continues to have a substantialy high DM mortality, but its pace slowed over time.
Moreover, subnational diferences in marginalization can partialy explain such a trend.Around 451 milion adults lived with diabetes melitus (DM) worldwide in 2017, an 8.7% increase compared to 20151,2. These numbers are expected to increase by 53.7% by 20452. In 2017, there were 5 milion DM deaths worldwide, a third of wich ocured in people under the age of 602.
