The Screening Model Construction and its Validity Evaluation for Population with Impaired Glucose Regulation in Community / 中国慢性病预防与控制

ABSTRACT

Objective To build the screening model for population with Impaired Glucose Regulation (IGR)in community, and to evaluate its validity by using the model in general population. Methods Based on the epidemiological survey of DM in the community population in 2006, the analysis of the risk factors and the risk factors scoring method were used to build the screening model for IGR in community which was then used to screen for IGR in 2 120 general population in community to evaluate its validity. Result When the screening model was built with the accumulative score of risk factors ≥5, the sensitivity and specificity for identifying undiagnosed IGR were 68.2% and 61.7%, Youden's index was 0.299 and the positive predictive value was 14.2%. When 2 120 general population used the screening model, only 974 (45.9% of them)had to take OGTT test, and 124 (68.9%) IGR were identified. Conclusion The screening model with the accumulative score of risk factors ≥5 is an easy, effective and economic tool for IGR screening, and it can be tried to use in the screening for IGR in community, further research is needed.
