Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults is a form of diabetes that progresses slowly and is controlled by diet and oral glucose-lowering medications before insulin is required. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the prevalence of latent autoimmune diabetes in adults. The present study was conducted based on PRISMA 2020-27-item checklist. To find the studies conducted in line with the purpose of the study, PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Science Direct, Web of Knowledge, EBSCO, Wiley, ISI, Elsevier, Embase databases and Google Scholar search engine were reviewed from 2013 to August 2023. Meta-analysis was performed using effect size with 95% confidence interval. Data analysis was done using STATA/MP. v17 software. The present study was carried out based on the PRISMA 2020 27-point checklist. To find out which studies were carried out in accordance with the purpose of the study, from 2013 to August, the databases PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Science Direct, Web of Knowledge, EBSCO, Wiley, ISI, Elsevier, Embase and the search engine Google Scholar reviewed 2023. Meta-analysis was performed using effect size with 95% confidence interval. Data analysis was carried out using STATA/MP. v17 software. The overall prevalence of Latent autoimmune diabetes of adults was found to be 7% (95%CI 0–20). Subgroup analysis of Latent autoimmune diabetes of adults in the context of geographic regions showed a higher prevalence in North America (15%) and South East Asia (5%). Since the identification of Latent autoimmune diabetes of adult patients with other forms of diabetes is misdiagnosed due to the combination of phenotypic features with T1D and T2D, studying its prevalence is of great importance.
