Note: Self-reported high blood pressure is defined by using the survey question, "Have you ever been told by a doctor, nurse, or other health professional that you have high blood pressure?"

The numbers of diabetes-attributable cases by age groups do not add up to totals because in some states the numbers for some age groups are not reported due to data unreliability, and thus these numbers by age groups may be underestimated.
