Tool to Assess Likelihood of Fasting Glucose ImpairmenT (TAG-IT)
Annals of Family Medicine, 11/12/08
Koopman RJ et al. - The TAG-IT efficiently identifies those most likely to have abnormal fasting glucose and can be used as a decision aid for screening in clinical and population settings, or as a prescreening tool to help identify potential participants for research. The TAG-IT represents an improvement over BMI alone or a list of risk factors in both its utility in younger adult populations and its ability to provide clinicians and researchers with a strategy to assess the risks of combinations of factors.
