1 BACKGROUND
Diabetes mellitus, a chronic condition characterized by elevated blood glucose levels resulting from insufficient insulin production or utilization, imposes substantial health and economic burdens in the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 37 million people in the United States, or approximately one in 10 people, have diabetes, and approximately 96 million US adults, or one in three, have prediabetes.1, 2 The prevalence of diabetes has been steadily increasing over the past few decades, and it is projected to continue to rise in the coming years.2 A multitude of factors contribute to an increased risk of developing the condition, including obesity, age, sedentary lifestyles, and belonging to certain racial minorities, such as Hispanic or Latino and non-Hispanic Black populations.1
Comprehending the trends, disparities, and risk factors associated with diabetes prevalence is crucial for developing effective prevention and management strategies.2, 3 While previous studies have explored trends over past years, the association between risk factors and diabetes prevalence has not been comprehensively documented. This study aims to bridge this knowledge gap by examining recent national trends and disparities in self-reported diabetes prevalence among US adults.

INTRODUCTION
Diabetes poses considerable health and economic burdens in the United States, costing a staggering $412.9 billion, including $306.6 billion of direct medical costs and $106.3 billion of indirect expenses.1Understanding the changing prevalence of diabetes and associated socioeconomic disparities is important for developing effective prevention and management strategies.2,3This study aims to address knowledge gaps by examining recent trends in diabetes prevalence among US adults and its disparities based on socioeconomic status utilizing a nationally representative dataset from 2012 to 2022. While previous studies have examined these trends over longer periods,4,5this study provides updated information for the recent decade, including the COVID-19 pandemic era.
