Diabetes mellitus is a kind of metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from insulin insufficiency and insulin resistance. It has become one of the major diseases threatening human health. In this paper, we analyze the current R&D status of diabetes from the aspects of papers, patents, drugs and industrial development. The results show that scientific outcomes are increasing steadily and the hot topics are diabetic complications and epidemiological research. In terms of technology development, large pharmaceutical companies, such as Janssen Pharmaceutical, Lilly pharmaceutical, Boehringer Ingelheim, are actively engaged in diagnosis, treatment and management of diabetes. By March 23 2022, 207 drugs have been launched and a large number of candidate drugs are in the pre-clinical and clinical stage. In terms of industrial development, the potential diabetes market is huge and the digital management of diabetes is developing rapidly. China has certain strength in diabetes research and development. In the future, measures should be taken to strengthen the transformation of research outcomes, and promote product development to meet China's huge needs of diabetes cares.
糖尿病(diabetes mellitus)是由胰岛素分泌缺乏和/或胰岛素抵抗引起的以高血糖为特征的一类代谢性疾病,已成为威胁全球人类健康的重大疾病之一。本文从论文、专利、药物、产业发展等方面分析了糖尿病领域国内外研发态势,旨在为我国糖尿病领域研究及相关产业发展提供决策参考。结果表明,论文发表方面,糖尿病领域研究的论文数量稳步增长,研究热点主要包括并发症及流行病学研究;技术开发方面,比利时杨森制药、美国礼来制药、德国勃林格殷格翰公司等大型制药企业在糖尿病诊断、治疗、管理等方面积极探索;药物研发方面,截至2022年3月23日,已有207个药物上市,还有大量药物处于临床前及临床阶段;产业发展方面,国内外市场潜力巨大,糖尿病数字化管理快速发展。我国在糖尿病研究和技术开发方面拥有一定的实力,未来需要采取措施加强研究成果转化与产品开发,以满足我国庞大的糖尿病诊疗与管理需求。.
