Simple Diagnostic Tool Predicts
Type 2 Diabetes in Southeast Asians
Australian and Vietnamese researchers
have estimated the current prevalence
of Type 2 diabetes in Vietnam, and
have developed a simple tool for
identifying individuals at high risk.
The tool is a 'nomogram' that shows
three different measurements,
represented as three parallel lines
on paper.
The line to the left shows systolic
blood pressure, the one to the right
shows waist-to-hip ratio, the one in
the middle shows risk of diabetes.
A line is drawn between an individual's
scores on the outer lines. The point
at which it intersects the central
line indicates risk.
