This is a narrative literature review that catalogues factors reported in 15 published articles as associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus incidence, including age, BMI, physical activity, diet, smoking, and psychological factors. It provides no original data, quantitative synthesis, relative risks, or comparative effect sizes, and offers descriptive categorization rather than evidence of causation or strength of association.
Literature review with PRISMA-guided search. Published studies on factors associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus incidence; setting and geographic scope of included studies not specified..
Review identified 15 articles meeting inclusion criteria from Google Scholar, ProQuest, and PubMed (2022–2026). Factors identified as influencing T2DM incidence include age, gender, occupation, socioeconomic status, family history, BMI, obesity, diet, physical activity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, blood glucose, metabolic factors, sleep duration, smoking, alcohol consumption, knowledge, and psychological factors/depression.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
This review offers a broad listing of recognised epidemiological associates of type 2 diabetes but does not quantify their individual or comparative effect sizes, adjust for confounding, or rank their clinical importance. It is suitable as orientation to the field but not as evidence for clinical decision-making or prevention prioritisation.

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease caused by the pancreas’s inability to produce sufficient insulin or the body’s inability to use the insulin produced effectively (insulin resistance). The onset of diabetes mellitus is caused by several factors, including age, physical activity, genetic factors, metabolic factors, obesity, diet, smoking, alcohol consumption, and psychological factors. The purpose of this literature review is to identify factors associated with the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus. This literature review was conducted by searching published results in the Google Scholar, ProQuest, and PubMed databases from 2022 to 2026 using the PRISMA method. The search terms used were “factors AND incidence AND Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.” The search identified 15 articles that met the inclusion criteria. In conclusion, factors influencing the incidence of type 2 diabetes include age, gender, occupation and socioeconomic status, family history of diabetes, Body Mass Index (BMI) and obesity, dietary patterns, physical activity, hypertension, dyslipidemia and cholesterol levels, blood glucose and metabolic factors, sleep duration, smoking, alcohol consumption, knowledge, and psychological factors/depression.
