Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Using the Huawei Fit5Pro smartwatch equipped with the Diabetes Risk Profile feature. 2. Must have successfully generated a Diabetes Risk Profile on their smartwatch within a maximum of two data collection cycles via the partner application 3. Adults aged 20 to70 years at the time of clinical enrolment. 4. Able to read, understand, and provide written electronic consent in Thai. 5. Willingness to undergo fasting clinical blood tests (HbA1c, FPG, Fasting Insulin, and OGTT) at the study site within 30 days of generating the digital risk profile. 6. Generally healthy adults with no known prior diagnosis of diabetes, able to provide blood test results that have been within 6 months

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Participants with a prior diagnosis of diabetes mellitus, including those diagnosed based on a positive Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) 2. Participants with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in previous pregnancy. 3. Use of any glucose-lowering medications (e.g., Insulin, Metformin) or supplements that affect blood sugar levels. 4. Participants who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant during the 30-day study period. 5. Known allergy or significant skin sensitivity to the materials of the smart watch or its sensors (e.g., silicone, medical-grade steel). 6. Participants with ongoing participation in other interventional or observational clinical trials, particularly diabetes-related studies, at the time of enrolment.
