Introduce topic

Introduction Death by diabetes in India

Credibility

I am interested in this topic because diabetes is a major disease that contributed to the number of deaths in India. Hence, I have done some information search on this topic.

Background of topic

According to the Indian online news,Scroll.In ,the number of deaths due to diabetes keep increasing and is now the seventh most common cause of death in the country.

Central Idea

Death by diabetes in India is mainly affected due to several factors and how it affects the people in the country.

Description of data

Body (Describing chart[s] and/or graph[s]) 1. There was a gradual increase in death by diabetes from 115,000

Chart 1

deaths in the year 1990 to 346,000 deaths in the year 2015. 2. The highest number of deaths reported was in 2015 about 346,000 deaths were reported compared to other years probably due to unhealthy lifestyles. 3. This chart shows a significant increase of 65,000 deaths by diabetes. This figure was recorded based on the difference between 346,000 deaths in the year 2015 and 281,000 deaths in the year 2010. According to IndiaSpend dated in June 2015, the practice of sedentary and carbohydrate-rich diets along with environmental factors are the cause of diabetes.

The second reason is Indians are predisposed to diabetes due to genetic reason in which particular genetic composition of Indians known as ‘Asian Indian Phenotype’ that makes them prone to greater abdominal fat, insulin resistance and higher levels of bad fats increased the chances of suffering from diabetes. Diabetes in India has affected the productivity of the population in which the prevalence of diabetes is among the middle-aged people. When diabetes hit those middle-aged Indians a decade earlier than the rest of the country, most of them were unable to attend to their workplace and it had caused a low level of efficiencies among the workers.

Conclusion

Conclusion The charts show that diabetes has become a major contribution to the number of deaths in India every year compared to other diseases ,especially among the middle-aged group. The high rate of deaths in India due to diabetes is mainly affected due to several factors such as genetics, lifestyles and environmental factors.

Recommendation

In order to control the risk of death due to diabetes, one should exercise regularly at least 5 times per week, removed refined carbohydrates from diet and consume probiotics to reduce blood sugar levels, insulin levels ,and glucose resistance.

Chart 1 : Number of deaths due to diabetes in India

An increase of number of deaths from the year 1990 to year 2015

The highest number of deaths by diabetes were reported in the year 2015

Article 1 With a genetic predisposition brought to the fore by changing lifestyles, deaths due to diabetes increased 50% in India between 2005 and 2015, and is now the seventh most common cause of death in the country, up from the 11th rank in 2005, according to data published by the Global Burden of Disease.

Ischemic heart disease continues to be the highest cause of death, followed by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cerebrovascular disease, lower respiratory infection, diarrhoeal diseases and tuberculosis.

In 2015, 346,000 people died of diabetes, which caused 3.3% of all deaths that year, with an annual increase of 2.7% from 1990, according to the Global Burden of Disease study.

Nearly 26 people die of diabetes per 100,000 population; diabetes is also one of the top causes of disability and accounts for 2.4% of the disability adjusted life years lost (sum of years lost due to disability or premature death due to the disease).

There are 69.1 million people with diabetes in India, the second highest number in the world after China, which has 109 million people with diabetes. Of these, 36 million cases remain undiagnosed, according to this 2015 Diabetes Atlas released by the

International Diabetes Federation. Nearly nine percent in the age group of 20-79 have diabetes.

The figures are alarming since diabetes is a chronic disease that not just affects the pancreas’ ability to produce insulin but affects the entire body. Complications caused due to diabetes include heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, vision loss and neuropathy or nerve damage leading to leg amputation. Unlike other countries, where a majority of people with diabetes are over 60 years old, the prevalence in India is among the 40-59 years age group, affecting productivity of the population.

Reason 1 : How diabetes affect the people?

“Diabetes strikes Indians a decade earlier than the world,” Anoop Misra, chairman, Fortis Centre of Excellence for Diabetes, Metabolic Diseases and Endocrinology, New Delhi, told IndiaSpend. “This causes reduced productivity, increased absenteeism in working population and gives more time for complications to arise.”

Reason 1 : Factor of diabetes Indians are especially predisposed to diabetes due to social and genetic reasons. Peculiar genetic composition of Indians known as "Asian Indian Phenotype" makes them appear thin but with fat depositions around their internal organs. It makes them prone to greater abdominal fat, insulin resistance, higher levels of bad fat and increased chances of suffering from diabetes and coronary artery disease.

Lifestyle changes with reduced physical activity and carbohydrate-rich diet, along with environmental factors, are increasing India’s diabetes burden, IndiaSpend reported in June 2015.

Reason 2 : Factor of diabetes
