| Abstract | This paper proposes a semi-parametric generalized linear mixed model (GLMM) method of evaluating the impact of covariates on diagnostic tests accuracy of gestational diabetic mellitus (GDM).The proposed method unlike other regression based methods produces smooth Receiver Operating Characteristic curves (ROC) with very good precision and are unbiased. It was however applied in obtaining a given common cut-off value for the screening of GDM using glucose challenge test (GCT) in which a threshold of 177 mg/dl was recommended as the cutoff value of 50 grams GCT for screening of GDM in each trimester in GDM risk women. The proposed methods were seen to compare favorably with other known methods. |
