Increasing incidence of early-onset type 2 diabetes in Sweden 2006-2021.
Article in European journal of public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Our aim was to provide new data on the incidence, prevalence, and secular trend of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Sweden, specifically early-onset T2D. We followed the Swedish population 2006 to 2021 and calculated age-standardized incidence (per 100 000) and prevalence (%) of T2D (overall) and early-onset T2D (age 23-39 years) stratified by sex, region of birth, and educational level. We projected the future prevalence of early-onset T2D by combining observed trends with population projections. From 2006 to 2021, the prevalence of T2D rose from 4.87% to 7.50%, and incidence from 477 [95% confidence interval (CI) 471-482] to 574 (CI 568-579). Early-onset T2D incidence increased from 54 to 107 (4.7% annual rise; CI 3.7%-5.7%) during this period. Incidence of early-onset T2D was higher in individuals born outside Europe (211, CI 195-226 vs 89, CI 84-93 in 2021) or low education (204, CI 185-223 vs 71, CI 65-77 in 2021), but a rise in incidence was seen irrespective of educational level, region of origin, and sex. If the incidence of early-onset T2D continues to increase at the same pace, its prevalence is projected to increase from 0.64% in 2021 to 3.2% in 2050. While T2D incidence rose marginally in Sweden 2006 to 2021, there was a significant rise in early-onset T2D, seen across different socioeconomic characteristics, with prevalence more than doubling and incidence nearly doubling. This development calls for targeted preventive efforts.
