ObjectivesTo study the characteristics of UK individuals identified with non-diabetic hyperglycaemia (NDH) and their conversion rates to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) from 2000 to 2015, using the Clinical Practice Research Datalink.DesignCohort study.SettingsUK primary Care Practices.ParticipantsElectronic health records identified 14 272 participants with NDH, from 2000 to 2015.Primary and secondary outcome measuresBaseline characteristics and conversion trends from NDH to T2DM were explored. Cox proportional hazards models evaluated predictors of conversion.ResultsCrude conversion was 4% within 6 months of NDH diagnosis, 7% annually, 13% within 2 years, 17% within 3 years and 23% within 5 years. However, 1-year conversion fell from 8% in 2000 to 4% in 2014. Individuals aged 45–54 were at the highest risk of developing T2DM (HR 1.20, 95% CI 1.15 to 1.25— compared with those aged 18–44), and the risk reduced with older age. A body mass index (BMI) above 30 kg/m2 was strongly associated with conversion (HR 2.02, 95% CI 1.92 to 2.13—compared with those with a normal BMI). Depression (HR 1.10, 95% CI 1.07 to 1.13), smoking (HR 1.07, 95% CI 1.03 to 1.11—compared with non-smokers) or residing in the most deprived areas (HR 1.17, 95% CI 1.11 to 1.24—compared with residents of the most affluent areas) was modestly associated with conversion.ConclusionAlthough the rate of conversion from NDH to T2DM fell between 2010 and 2015, this is likely due to changes over time in the cut-off points for defining NDH, and more people of lower diabetes risk being diagnosed with NDH over time. People aged 45–54, smokers, depressed, with high BMI and more deprived are at increased risk of conversion to T2DM.

The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus is increasing worldwide. Current methods of treating diabetes remain inadequate, and therefore, prevention with screening methods is the most appropriate process to reduce the burden of diabetes and its complications. We propose a new prognostic approach for type 2 diabetes mellitus based on electronic health records without using the current invasive techniques that are related to the disease (e.g. glucose level or glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c)). Our methodology is based on machine learning frameworks with data enrichment using temporal features. As as result our predictive model achieved an area under the receiver operating characteristics curve with a random forest classifier of 84.22 percent when including data information from 2009 to 2011 to predict diabetic patients in 2012, 83.19 percent when including temporal features, and 83.72 percent after applying temporal features and feature selection. We conclude that he pathology prediction is possible and efficient using the patient’s progression information over the years and without using the invasive techniques that are currently used for type 2 diabetes mellitus classification.

SummaryObjective: To improve the transparency of clinical trial generalizability and to illustrate the method using Type 2 diabetes as an example.Methods: Our data included 1,761 diabetes clinical trials and the electronic health records (EHR) of 26,120 patients with Type 2 diabetes who visited Columbia University Medical Center of New-York Presbyterian Hospital. The two populations were compared using the Generalizability Index for Study Traits (GIST) on the earliest diagnosis age and the mean hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) values.Results: Greater than 70% of Type 2 diabetes studies allow patients with HbA1c measures between 7 and 10.5, but less than 40% of studies allow HbA1c<7 and fewer than 45% of studies allow HbA1c>10.5. In the real-world population, only 38% of patients had HbA1c between 7 and 10.5, with 12% having values above the range and 52% having HbA1c<7. The GIST for HbA1c was 0.51. Most studies adopted broad age value ranges, with the most common restrictions excluding patients >80 or <18 years. Most of the real-world population fell within this range, but 2% of patients were <18 at time of first diagnosis and 8% were >80. The GIST for age was 0.75. Conclusions: We contribute a scalable method to profile and compare aggregated clinical trial target populations with EHR patient populations. We demonstrate that Type 2 diabetes studies are more generalizable with regard to age than they are with regard to HbA1c. We found that the generalizability of age increased from Phase 1 to Phase 3 while the generalizability of HbA1c decreased during those same phases. This method can generalize to other medical conditions and other continuous or binary variables. We envision the potential use of EHR data for examining the generaliz-ability of clinical trials and for defining population-representative clinical trial eligibility criteria.Citation: Weng C, Li Y, Ryan P, Zhang Y, Liu F, Gao J, Bigger JT, Hripcsak G.
