| الوصف: | Abstract Disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on socioeconomic and behavioral variables may have impacted the prevalence of diabetes. We utilized nationwide long-term serial study from the 2009 to 2021 Korea Community Health Survey (KCHS). We explored national and regional prevalence and trends of diabetes according to the socioeconomic and behavioral factors before and during the pandemic. Also, we interpreted which groups became more vulnerable to the prevalence of diagnosed diabetes during the pandemic. A total of 2,971,349 adults aged (19 to 39, 40 to 59, and ≥ 60 years) were included in the analysis. The prevalence of diagnosed diabetes increased slowly during the pandemic (11.6% [95% CI 11.5–11.7] in 2020 and 12.4% [95% CI 12.3–12.6] in 2021), compared to the pre-pandemic era (7.9% [95% CI 7.8–7.9] in 2009–2011 and 11.3% [95% CI 11.3–11.4] in 2018–2019). Also, women, low-income group, low-educational group, and infrequent walking group showed less prevalence of diagnosed diabetes than the others. The diabetic population increased slowly than expected during the pandemic. The pandemic seems to contribute to an unanticipated increase in under-diagnosis of diabetes among the already minority. This study may suggest reinforcing access to healthcare services among the minority during the pandemic. |
