Diabetes registries have been established in many countries following recommendations of the St Vincent Declaration to help improve quality of care for diabetes. 1 Diabetes registries can help measure and compare outcomes, and highlight variations in care for quality improvement. Well established registries can report on a wide range of parameters such as characteristics of the population, risk factor control, complications, treatments, and costs, and identify gaps in implementation of evidence-based guideline recommendations. The most comprehensive diabetes registries collate demographic data such as age, sex, ethnicity, and deprivation measures, as well as data on risk factors and biomarkers such as HbA1c, blood pressure, lipids, urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio, kidney and liver function, lifestyle data (eg, smoking status), comorbidities, consultation rates, data on microvascular and macrovascular complications, data on eye and feet examination, and linkage to mortality. However, data capture can be variable, and registries are rarely integrated in the health-care system and are primarily used for epidemiological purposes. In 2019, the International Consortium on Health Outcome Measurement (ICHOM) published a consensus on outcomes that are particularly important for people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. 2 Then, a systematic review from 2021 identified all registries up to Dec 31, 2020 and compared them with the ICHOM standard set of outcomes. 3 This review identified 12 national clinical diabetes registries with all recording bodyweight, HbA1c, lipid profile, and insulin treatment with variability in recording other process and outcome measures. The systematic review also concluded that the registries gave insight into the prevalence, treatment, complications, and mortality in people with diabetes and that most of these registers allowed monitoring of the quality of care using guidelines as a benchmark. However, the influence on regional or national health-care policy and patient outcomes was variable and not clear. Another long-standing registry is the Division of Diabetes Translation, which is an initiative of the US Centre for Disease Control and Prevention and the US National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney diseases that funded the SEARCH for diabetes in youth study. 4 This registry has provided insights into temporal trends and health disparities, changes in presentation, quality of life, and effect on outcomes. There is now also an establishment of global registries with the DISCOVER Global Registry with the aim of establishing a new long-term scalable and sustainable registry to provide real-world data on patient demography, disease management, health-care utilisation, and quality of care and outcomes of people with type 2 diabetes. This registry is particularly aimed at low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) where there are few diabetes registries. In 2016, diabetes experts and politicians representing 38 countries launched the Berlin Declaration with a call to action urging policy makers to reduce the burden of type 2 diabetes by investing in and supporting early detection, early control, and early access to equitable care. 6 Another key pillar of this declaration was for national monitoring to measure clinical outcomes and to show the proportion of people with suboptimal control, and propose actions being taken to address these issues.In April, 2022, the European Diabetes Forum (EUDF), a representative group comprising health-care professionals, researchers, industry associates, and people with diabetes published key recommendations on developing, maintaining, and utilising registries and highlighted …
