Prevalence of diabetes in Colombia. (A) Age-adjusted diabetes mellitus prevalence per 100,000 inhabitants are shown for the 32 Colombian administrative departments (i.e., states). Diabetes prevalence estimates were averaged across three different epidemiological databases: (1) Cuenta de Alto Costo, (2) Observatorio de Diabetes de Colombia, and (3) the Sistema Integral de Información de la Protección Social. The map was created using the R maptools package⁶⁵ with mapping data from OpenStreetMaps. The cartography in the OpenStreetMap map tiles is licensed under CC BY-SA (www.openstreetmap.org/copyright).

(B) Comparison of Colombian diabetes state-by-state prevalence estimates taken from the three different database sources. Regression plots for all three possible pairwise comparisons between the different databases are shown, with the values for Chocó and Antioquia indicated. For each regression, the Pearson correlation r-value is shown along with the P-value significance level.
