To validate the Archimedes simulation model of diabetes and its complications across various populations, organ systems, treatments, and clinical outcomes.
Simulated 18 randomized controlled trials chosen by an independent advisory committee by replicating trial procedures in the model and comparing calculated outcomes to observed data.
Assessed 74 validation exercises divided equally between trials used during model development (internal validation) and trials withheld from model creation (external validation).
No statistically significant differences occurred between model-calculated and observed trial results in 71 of the 74 validation exercises.
Calculated outcomes demonstrated a correlation of r = 0.99 with observed trial results for external validations and r = 0.99 across all combined exercises.
The correlation coefficient between model-predicted and observed absolute differences between treatment and control groups was r = 0.97.
