Despite the rise in type 2 diabetes (T2D) prevalence worldwide, we do not have a method for early T2D risk prediction. Phenotype variables only contribute to risk prediction near the onset or after the development of T2D. The predictive ability of genetic models has been found to be little or negligible so far. T2D has mostly genetic background but the genetic loci identified so far account for only a small fraction (10%) of the overall heritable risk. In this study, we used data from The Nurses' Health Study and Health Professionals' Follow-up Study cohorts to develop a better and early risk prediction method for T2D by using binary logistic regression. Phenotypic variables yielded 70.7% overall correctness and an area under curve (AUC) of 0.77. With regard to genotype, 798 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with P values lower than 1.0E-3, yielded 90.0% correctness and an AUC of 0.965. This is the highest score in literature, even including the scores obtained with phenotypic variables. The additive contributions of phenotype and genotype increased the overall correctness to 92.9%, and AUC to 0.980. Our results showed that the genotype could be used to obtain a higher score, which could enable early risk prediction. These findings present new possibilities for genome-wide association study (GWAS) analysis in terms of discovering missing heritability. Changes in diet and lifestyle due to early risk prediction using genotype could result in a healthier population. These results should be confirmed by follow-up studies.

Prediction of insulin resistance by statistical tool MARS
Örsçelik, Simge Gökçe; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm; Osterhoff, Martin; Department of Bioinformatics (2014)
Recently, following the rise in obesity prevalence, the incidence of type 2 diabetes rose remarkably. Diabetes is a serious disorder, accompanied by increased risk of developing heart disease, kidney failure, and new cases of blindness. Dietary habits are strongly related to type 2 diabetes. We sought to observe how dietary protein and glycemic index patterns, weight change and/or other predictors we selected relate to insulin resistance change. First, we applied multiple linear regression, and then statist...
A test of theory of planned behavior in type II diabetes adherence: The leading role of perceived behavioral control
Dilekler, İlknur; Doğulu, Canay; Bozo Özen, Özlem (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-01-01)
Diabetes mellitus is a health complication that millions of people suffer from all over the world. Type II (non-insulin dependent) diabetes requires many changes in the daily lives of patients, including monitoring blood glucose, following a healthy diet, exercising, and taking medications. Although it is vital for their health, patients generally find it difficult to adhere to their medical regimen. In order to better understand the adherence behaviors of type II diabetes patients, the theory of planned be...
A Novel Artificial Pancreas: Energy Efficient Valveless Piezoelectric Actuated Closed-Loop Insulin Pump for T1DM
Kacar, Alp; Özer, Mehmet Bülent; Tascioglu, Yigit (2020-08-01)
The objective of this work is to develop a closed-loop controlled insulin pump to keep the blood glucose level of Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) patients in the desired range. In contrast to the existing artificial pancreas systems with syringe pumps, an energy-efficient, valveless piezoelectric pump is designed and simulated with different types of controllers and glucose-insulin models. COMSOL Multiphysics is used for piezoelectric-fluid-structural coupled 3D finite element simulations of the pump. Then,...
The effects of streptozotocin induced-diabetes on rat testes and the recovery role of vitamin c
Güldağ, Damla; Severcan, Feride; Department of Biology (2012)
Type I Diabetes is a multisystem disease having both biochemical and structural consequences. It causes alterations in carbohydrate, protein, and fat metabolisms due to hyperglycemia. Type I diabetes is also correlated with increased formation of free radicals and decreased levels of antioxidant potential. Lower endogeneous antioxidant amounts and elevated lipid peroxidation levels in diabetes constitute the basis of risk factors for the development of diabetic complications. These complications lead to irr...
