Scientists from the Research Institute of Therapy and Preventive Medicine (NITTPM) in Novosibirsk have developed an online calculator that allows doctors to determine the probability of a particular type of diabetes in young patients in a few minutes.
We have created an online calculator available to all endocrinologists. To assess, you need to enter age, gender, glucose level, glycated hemoglobin, heredity, and a few other indicators
The program analyzes the data and provides the percentage probability of each type of diabetes. The calculator can be used on both a computer and a smartphone, which facilitates the work of doctors at the appointment.
The development is based on a medical database. Statisticians identified key factors indicating various types of diabetes, and programmers integrated them into a user-friendly application. It is planned that a patent for the tool will be obtained in 2026, after which the calculator will be introduced in medical institutions in Russia.
According to experts, this tool will help reduce diagnosis time and increase the accuracy of determining the type of diabetes, especially in young patients, in whom the disease may be latent. International experience shows that digital calculators and algorithms greatly facilitate the work of endocrinologists and speed up the correct diagnosis.
