A comparison of the results of the National Diabetes Survey between 1997 and 2007 in Japan showed that the percentage of “people strongly suspected of having diabetes” (diabetes) increased from 9.9% to 15.3% in males and from 7.1% to 7.3% in females, and the percentage of “people for whom the possibility of diabetes cannot be precluded” (prediabetes) increased from 8.0% to 14.0% in males and from 7.9% to 15.9% in females. The increase in the percentage of “people for whom the possibility of diabetes cannot be precluded” was remarkably large. In absolute numbers, “people strongly suspected of having diabetes” increased from approximately 6.9 million to 8.9 million and “people for whom the possibility of diabetes cannot be precluded” increased from approximately 6.8 million to 13.2 million during the same period. The incidence rate of type 2 diabetes in children (per 100,000 person-years) was higher among junior high school students (6.73) than among elementary school students (0.75), and 80% of diabetic children were obese. Sixty percent of diabetic children had diabetic relative(s) within the relation of first or second degree. The incidence rate of type 1 diabetes in children, ranging from approximately 1.5 to 2.5 (per 100,000 personyears), was low in international comparison.
