Abstract

Background and objective The aim of this study was to validate the ability of the Finnish Diabetes Risk Score (FINDRISC) to predict the risk of DM2 in a population of south-eastern Spain (Pizarra Study). Subjects and methods The Pizarra Study is a population-based prospective study developed in the town of Pizarra (Málaga). The first phase of the study was conducted in 1997-1998, including 1051 individuals aged 18-65 years randomly selected from the municipal census of the town. In 2003-2004 the subjects participating in the first study were reassessed. 824 individuals completed the second phase of the study (78.4%). All participants without known diabetes underwent an oral glucose tolerance test both at baseline and follow-up. We evaluated the ability of the FINDRISC to detect undiagnosed DM2 (first phase: cross-sectional study) and in predicting the incidence of DM2 (second phase: cohort study). Results The test showed good results both to detect undiagnosed DM2 (ROC-AUC 0.74) and to predict incident DM2 (ROC-AUC 0.75). The best prediction of risk of incident DM2 was found in those subjects with fasting glucose >100mg/dl and a FINDRISC ≥9 (OR: 19.37; 95%IC: 8,86-42,34; P Conclusions The results of our study show that FINDRISC can be a useful tool to detect subjects at high risk of diabetes in this population.

  • FINDRISC is the most commonly evaluated diabetes risk score worldwide and has been recommended as the best available risk assessment tool for clinical practice by a systematic review.

    “Moreover, FINDRISC is the most commonly evaluated diabetes risk score worldwide [17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25] and has been recommended as the best available risk assessment tool for use in the clinical practice by a systematic review [11].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
