The prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is rapidly rising worldwide. As the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) suggests that the number of adults living with diabetes worldwide was increasing from time to time. Kerala, a state in the southern part of India with a prevalence of type 2 diabetes of 20% leads the country in epidemiological transition and is the most advanced Indian state in epidemiological transition and has the highest type 2 diabetes prevalence. The study was conducted to assess the emergence occurrence of T2DM in North Kerala during the last decade, and also developed a mathematical model to predict the gender wise growth of T2DM.The study was undertaken as a Retrospective study in three multi-speciality hospitals in North Kerala. Details regarding the age and yearly census of both male and female in patients (IP) and out patients (OP) of T2DM were retrieved from the hospital records of past 10 years. These secondary data were subjected to statistical analysis to predict the growth in the occurrence of both diabetes IP and OP till the year 2025. The findings of the study concluded that d there would be a substantial escalation in the growth of T2DM in North Kerala in upcoming years. Gender based growth examination point out that male has greater chance of being affected by diabetes than females in North Kerala. After 40 years the chances of hospital admission related to diabetes was high, but as the age progresses the need for medical emergencies increased gradually.
