I need two attributed estimates for the projected growth rate in Type
2 diabetes, preferable in the US and worldwide but I can take either.

Hello t2d2006,

Most data sources do not distinguish between type 1 and type 2
diabetes in adults,therefore it is not possible to present data
separately for subtypes of diabetes.

However "Approximately 10 per cent of people with diabetes have type 1
diabetes.The remaining 90 per cent have type 2 diabetes."

Would the information in the following publication suit your purpose?

Please let me know if my findings are satisfactory and I will post
them as the official answer to your question.

Thank you.  This is helpful, however unles I misunderstand all of this
is WHO data.  That will serve as one estimate and I need two ... can
you identify a second independent estimate?

Dear T2d2006,

Thank you for responding to my clarification.

Below you will find estimates from other sources.


Projection of diabetes burden through 2050: impact of changing
demography and disease prevalence in the U.S.

OBJECTIVE: 
?To project the number of people with diagnosed diabetes in the U.S.
through 2050, accounting for changing demography and diabetes
prevalence rates.?

RESULTS: 
"The number of Americans with diagnosed diabetes is projected to
increase 165%, from 11 million in 2000 (prevalence of 4.0%) to 29
million in 2050 (prevalence of 7.2%). The largest percent increase in
diagnosed diabetes will be among those aged > or =75 years (+271% in
women and +437% in men). The fastest growing ethnic group with
diagnosed diabetes is expected to be black males (+363% from
2000-2050), with black females (+217%), white males (+148%), and white
females (+107%) following. Of the projected 18 million increase in the
number of cases of diabetes in 2050, 37% are due to changes in
demographic composition, 27% are due to population growth, and 36% are
due to increasing prevalence rates."
