Why it matters

Annual and multi-year figures move slowly. A step this size is compared with how far the same series usually moves from one period to the next, so an ordinary year does not read as news.

For high blood sugar (women), lower is better. This movement is therefore assessed as a deterioration.

Historical context

Compared with the previous round, 2019–21. Survey rounds are years apart, so this is a change between rounds, not a recent movement.
