| Abstract | AIMS: To evaluate the performance of EZSCAN as a screening tool for impaired glucose metabolism (IGM), including impaired glucose tolerance, impaired fasting glucose and undiagnosed diabetes in a Chinese population. METHODS: 876 subjects participated in the study. All subjects underwent tests of EZSCAN, glycated hemoglobin, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Correlation of electrical skin conductance (ESC) with glucose level was evaluated by Pearson correlation coefficient. EZSCAN performance was assessed by receiver operating characteristic curve. RESULTS: Among the 876 subjects, 53% had normal glucose tolerance (NGT), and 47% had IGM. The ESC for the hands and feet was 72 ± 10 µS and 75 ± 7 µS, respectively, in NGT group; and 64 ± 13 µS and 67 ± 11 µS, respectively, in IGM group. The ESC at hands and feet was significantly correlated with both 2h-OGTT and FPG (p<0.001). NGT group demonstrated a EZSCAN score of 33 ± 11%, which is significantly lower than that of IGM group (44 ± 12%, p<0.001). The cut-off point of EZSCAN for IGM detection was 40% with a sensitivity of 80% and a specificity of 72%. CONCLUSIONS: EZSCAN is a useful screening tool for identifying subjects at increased risk for impaired glucose metabolism in prediabetes and diabetes. Diagnostic laboratory test should be performed in subjects with EZSCAN scores greater than 40%. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
