Discussion of EZSCAN Parameters for Diabetes Screening in Chinese
نویسندگان
چکیده
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.

Autonomic Test by EZSCAN in the Screening for Prediabetes and Diabetes
BACKGROUND Autonomic neuropathy is common in diabetics and may occur in prediabetes. A new and noninvasive autonomic test-EZSCAN evaluates sudomotor function precisely. No generally accepted EZSCAN thresholds to screen for prediabetes and diabetes have been defined. METHODOLOGY AND PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Cross-sectional study of 5, 824 Chinese adults aged 40 and older was conducted in Shanghai, C...

BACKGROUND A new simple technique based on iontophoresis technology (EZSCAN, Impeto Medical, Paris, France) has recently been developed for the screening of diabetes. In the present study, we investigated the accuracy of this system for the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus in Chinese. METHODS We performed the EZSCAN test in diabetic and non-diabetic subjects. EZSCAN measures electrochemical con...
متن کاملNon-invasive screening of diabetes risk by assessing abnormalities of sudomotor function.
BACKGROUND The early detection of diabetes, and subsequent lifestyle intervention, may reduce the burden of diabetes and its complications. Several studies have identified a link between sudomotor dysfunction, insulin resistance, and pre-diabetes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of a new non-invasive device EZSCAN evaluating sudomotor function to detect pre-diabetes in a Germa...
