QDiabetes-2018 was developed for adults aged 25–84 years.

About QDiabetes

QDiabetes estimates the 10-year risk of developing type 2 diabetes. The QDiabetes-2018 study derived separate equations for men and women using Cox proportional-hazards models and routinely collected UK primary-care data.

Clinical implementation notes

  • The published model includes additional predictors beyond those in the submitted form, including cardiovascular disease, treated hypertension, regular corticosteroid use, selected medications and conditions; some factors are sex-specific.
  • The supplied PHP's hand-written coefficients (such as 0.02 × age and 0.1 × BMI) are not the validated QDiabetes model.
  • The model was developed in the UK context. Townsend deprivation and ethnicity coding need careful consideration before use in Indonesia.
  • This page validates input fields only and intentionally does not calculate a risk percentage.
