BACKGROUND: Accurate classification of type 1 diabetes (T1DM) and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in the early phase is crucial for individual precision treatment. This study aimed to develop a classification model having fewer and easier to access clinical variables to distinguish T1DM in newly diagnosed diabetes in adults. METHODS: Clinical and laboratory data were collected from 15,206 adults with newly diagnosed diabetes in this cross-sectional study. This cohort represented 20 provinces and 4 municipalities in China. Types of diabetes were determined based on postprandial C-peptide (PCP) level and glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibody (GADA) titer. We developed multivariable clinical diagnostic models using the eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) algorithm. Classification variables included in the final model were based on their scores of importance. Model performance was evaluated by area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC AUC), sensitivity, and specificity. The performance of models with different variable combinations was compared. Calibration intercept and slope were evaluated for the final model. RESULTS: Among the newly diagnosed diabetes cohort, 1,465 (9.63%) persons had T1DM and 13,741 (90.37%) had T2DM. Body mass index (BMI) contributed the most to the model, followed by age of onset and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). Compared with models with other clinical variable combinations, a final model that integrated age of onset, BMI and HbA1c had relatively higher performance. The ROC AUC, sensitivity, and specificity for this model were 0.83 (95% CI, 0.80 to 0.85), 0.77, and 0.76, respectively. The calibration intercept and slope were 0.02 (95% CI, -0.03 to 0.06) and 0.90 (95% CI, 0.79 to 1.02), respectively, which suggested a good calibration performance. CONCLUSIONS: Our classification model that integrated age of onset, BMI, and HbA1c could distinguish T1DM from T2DM, which provides a useful tool in assisting physicians in subtyping and precising treatment in diabetes.
