Primary

MeasureTime frame
Glycated protein and HbA1c in the hair are measured, and ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic analysis) is used to calculate the Area Under the Curve (AUC) and cut-off value to predict diabetes.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The AUC and cut-off values of hair glycated proteins are calculated to predict the respective HbA1c category (less than 5.7%, 5.7-6.4%, 6.5% or more) or prediabetes (HbA1c 5.7-6.4% without the use of diabetes drugs).
