Burden of type 2 diabetes due to high body mass index in different SDI regions and projections of future trends: insights from the Global Burden of Disease 2021 study.
Article in Diabetology & metabolic syndrome, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
aimThe aim of our study was to assess the impact of high body mass index (BMI) on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in different Socio-Demographic Development Index (SDI) regions using data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 study.
methodsUsing data from the GBD study, the burden of disease for T2DM was measured by analyzing the age-standardized disability-adjusted life year rate (ASDR) and age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) for type 2 diabetes due to high BMI and the associated estimated annual percentage change (EAPC). Decomposition analyses, frontier analyses, and predictive models were used to analyze changes and influencing factors for each metric.
resultsThe study revealed the significant global health burden of T2DM induced by high BMI, which EAPC of 1.82 with confidence intervals (CI) ranging from 1.78 to 1.87 for disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and 0.85 with CIs ranging from 0.77 to 0.93 for mortality. The results of the analysis emphasized the geographic variability of T2DM disease burden associated with SDI Within the area covered by the study, a decreasing trend in ASMR for T2DM was observed in high SDI areas, with an EAPC value of - 1.07 and a confidence interval ranging from - 1.39 to - 0.76. At the same time, in the other SDI areas, the ASMR and ASDR for T2DM showed an increasing trend. In addition, the study noted that individuals in the 65- to 75-year-old age group accounted for a higher proportion of T2DM-related deaths and DALYs, with females affected at a greater rate than males. Projections for future trends indicate that the ASDR and ASMR for T2DM are expected to continue an upward trajectory over the next decade.
conclusionThis study investigates the variation in T2DM burden attributable to high BMI across regions with different SDI levels. The analysis reveals that, in high-SDI regions, the ASMR decreased from 1990 to 2021 and stabilized around 4.4 deaths per 100,000 people, while the ASDR increased, reaching approximately 416 cases per 100,000 people in 2021. Conversely, both ASDR and ASMR exhibited an upward trend in other SDI regions over the same period.
