End-Stage Renal Disease- Incidence among Persons with Diabetes

End-stage renal disease is a major cause of hospitalization, disability, morbidity, and mortality for persons with diabetes.

• Prevalence is the number of new cases, and currently existing cases, of a disease in a population during a particular period of time.

• In 2003, persons with diabetes had a significantly higher prevalence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) than those without diabetes- with diabetes 8.13/1,000, without diabetes 1.02/1,000.

• In 2003, black females had a significantly higher prevalence rate of ESRD at 19.82/1,000 than other females at 14.36/1,000 and white females at 3.71/1,000.

• In 2003, black males had a significantly higher prevalence rate of ESRD at 20.00/1,000 than other males at 10.39/1,000 and white males at 4.20/1,000.
