Abstract
Objective

To study the parameters of EZSCAN as a screening tool for diabetes in Chinese.

Methods

A total of 6270 subjects participated in the study. All subjects underwent tests of EZSCAN, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), oral glucose tolerance test and HbA1c.

Results

1. All subjects were divided into 4 groups: the normal group, sugar metabolic abnormalities as low-risk group, middle-risk group and high-risk group. The difference of diabetes incidence among the 4 groups was statistically significant. With the increase of EZSCAN score, the prevalence of diabetes increased significantly. But there is no statistically difference between the low-risk group and the middle-risk group. 2. After adjustment for other variables, there is significantly positive relationship among EZSCAN risk score and the risk of diabetes. Meanwhile there is no statistically difference between the low-risk group and the middle-risk group. 3. The cut-off point of EZSCAN for diabetes was 44.5% with the sensitivity was 73.2% which was higher than of FPG and HbA1c.

Conclusion

As EZSCAN-diabetes risk score increases, the risk of diabetes increases. EZSCAN can be used as a tool for screening for diabetes. At the best screening diabetes cut-off point value 44.5%, the sensitivity is higher than traditional method of FPG and HbA1c.

Resumen
Objetivo

Estudiar los parámetros de EZSCAN como herramienta de cribado de la diabetes en la población china.

Métodos

En el estudio participaron 6.270 sujetos. A todos ellos se les realizó la prueba EZSCAN, la prueba de fasting plasma glucose (FPG, «glucosa plasmática en ayunas»), el test de tolerancia oral de la glucosa y HbA1c.

Resultados

1. Se dividió a los sujetos en 4 grupos: el grupo normal, el grupo de riesgo bajo, formado por sujetos con anomalías metabólicas del azúcar, el grupo de riesgo medio y el grupo de alto riesgo. La diferencia en cuanto a incidencia de diabetes entre los 4 grupos fue estadísticamente significativa. Con el incremento de la puntuación EZSCAN, la prevalencia de diabetes se incrementó significativamente. Pero no se produjo diferencia estadísticamente significativa entre el grupo de bajo riesgo y el de riesgo medio. 2. Tras ajustar otras variables, se produjo una relación significativamente positiva entre la puntuación de riesgo EZSCAN y el riesgo de diabetes, mientras que no se produjo una diferencia estadísticamente significativa entre el grupo de bajo riesgo y el de riesgo medio. 3. El punto de corte de EZSCAN para la diabetes fue del 44,5%, con una sensibilidad del 73,2%, que fue superior a FPG y HbA1c.

Conclusión

A medida que aumenta la puntuación de riesgo de diabetes EZSCAN, se incrementa el riesgo de la enfermedad. EZSCAN puede utilizarse como herramienta de cribado de la diabetes. Con un valor de punto de corte para el cribado de la diabetes del 44,5%, la sensibilidad es superior a la de los métodos tradicionales FPG y HbA1c.
