Key Points Question What is the association between diabetes and mortality in Asian populations? Findings In this pooled analysis of data from more than 1 million individual participants of 22 studies in Asia, diabetes was associated with substantially increased risk of death from a broad spectrum of diseases, particularly diabetes itself, renal disease, coronary heart disease, and ischemic stroke. The associations were more evident among women and younger patients than among men and elderly patients. Meaning The study’s findings suggest the urgent need for developing diabetes management programs that are tailored to Asian populations and the subsequent strong implementation of these programs in Asia.
