Article Synopsis
- India is facing a rising diabetes epidemic, with many individuals unaware of their condition, highlighting the urgent need for effective screening tools to identify those at risk.
- The study compares the Indian Diabetes Risk Score (IDRS) and the Finnish Diabetes Risk Score (FINDRISC) using data from a diabetes detection camp, analyzing their diagnostic accuracy through various statistical methods.
- Results show FINDRISC identified more high-risk individuals and had better clinical utility, indicating it may be a more effective screening tool than IDRS for diabetes risk in the Indian context.
