We found increasing trend in the overall incidence of school students with type 2 diabetes during 1975-1982, but a decreased tendency in recent years. This could be due to changes observed during the same time period in the primary school students. Lifestyle changes might contribute to improved incidence of childhood type 2 diabetes.
