Table 3

Age-standardized percentage of awareness and treatment of diabetes among Thai adults aged ≥20 years with diabetes, according to sex in 2004, 2009, and 2014.

	Men: % (95% CI)			Women: % (95% CI)
	2004	2009	2014	2004	2009	2014
Undiagnosed	65.2 (61.2, 69.0)	46.1 (39.4, 53.0)	51.2 (45.9, 56.6)	48.5 (44.6, 52.5)	23.3 (18.7, 28.6)	41.3 (36.6, 46.1)
Diagnosed but not treated	2.0 (1.2, 3.2)	5.4 (2.6, 11.1)	4.2 (2.4, 7.4)	1.6 (1.0, 2.6)	1.9 (1.0, 3.6)	1.7 (0.9, 2.9)
Treated but not controlled	23.7 (20.4, 27.4)	29.7 (24.1, 36.0)	23.9 (19.9, 28.3)	32.0 (28.5, 35.6)	40.1 (34.6, 46.0)	35.7 (31.5, 40.2)
Treated and controlled, among all diabetes	9.1 (7.3, 11.3)	18.8 (14.8, 23.4)	20.7 (16.9, 25.0)	17.9 (15.2, 21.0)	34.7 (29.4, 40.3)	21.3 (18.1, 25.0)
Treated and controlled, among those treated	26.3 (20.7, 32.8)	36.9 (29.0, 45.6)	45.9 (38.5, 53.5)	35.5 (30.5, 40.9)	46.1 (39.5, 52.9)	36.4 (30.9, 42.3)

Undiagnosed diabetes was defined as participants whose FPG level was 126 mg/dL or greater and reported that they had never been diagnosed with diabetes. Diabetes that was considered treated and controlled referred to participants who received treatment with glucose-lowering medication and FPG < 130 mg/dL. The percentage of treated and controlled among all diabetes was the number of participants with diabetes and FPG < 130 mg/dL divided by the number of all participants with diabetes (combined known and unknown diabetes) and for those treated and controlled among treated was the number of participants with diabetes and FPG < 130 mg/dL divided by the number of participants who were aware of and treated for diabetes.
