The utility of a machine learning model in identifying people at high risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus

According to previous reports, very high percentages of individuals in Saudi Arabia are undiagnosed for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Despite conducting several screening and awareness campaigns, these efforts lacked full accessibility and consumed extensive human and material resources. Thus, developing machine learning (ML) models could enhance the population-based screening process. The study aims to compare a newly developed ML model's outcomes with the validated American Diabetes Association's (ADA) risk assessment regarding predicting people with high risk for T2DM.
