Hospitalization in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Taiwan: A nationwide population-based observational study.

Hospitalization rates for malignancies and sepsis/infection (other than pneumonia) continually increased from 2005 to 2014 in Taiwan. Although patients with T2DM had a greater risk of disease-specific hospitalization than those without, this difference in risk decreased from 2005 to 2014 for all diseases except for pneumonia.
