Epidemiological Data
According to research from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), every tenth American (about 37 million individuals) has diabetes, with type 2 diabetes accounting for 95% of cases (CDC, 2021). The American Indians (Ais) are one of the most affected ethnic groups from diabetes. According to the CDC, one in two AIs has diabetes, and those who were born around 2000 are particularly susceptible. The prevalence of the diagnosis was 16% higher among white non-Hispanics (Saldana & Guarnaccia, 2022). According to a research, AIs have twice as much of a probability of developing type II diabetes and dying as White people do (Elma et al., 2021).
The white American people are less likely to get diabetes diagnosed as compared to other racial groups. Diabetes has decreased among AIs since 2013, according to a new IHS analysis, but it is still one of the main causes of illness and mortality among AIs (Brockie et al., 2018). In Ais, T2DM brings other diseases as well like cardiovascular diseases and obesity. And among AI deaths, CVD is one of the most common causes. The incidence of AIs varies across locations and tribal groups as well. For instance, among Indian tribes, the Pima tribe has the greatest occurrence rate (Hsueh et al., 2018).
