摘要：Clinical diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (DM) is time-consuming and invasive. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and accuracy of EZSCAN in detecting impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and diabetes mellitus (DM) in Chinese population, and explore a diagnosis formula based on an autonomic test using EZSCAN measurement and anthropometric data. Eligible subjects (n = 1547) had the following data collected: those of anthropometric and EZSCAN measurements and biochemical tests including FPG, OGTT, HbA1c, and serum lipid tests. The support vector machine (SVM) algorithm method was used to derive a diagnostic formula. In this study, 452 and 263 subjects were diagnosed with T2DM and IGT, respectively, while 832 had normal glucose tolerance (NGT). The sensitivity rates for the formula were 77.2% for T2DM and 80.4% for IGT. The diagnostic formula was found to correlate strongly with EZSCAN values. The diagnostic formula based on autonomic test and anthropometric data appears to be a convenient and accurate routine screening option in the Chinese population.
