Discussion Questions
- Have the approaches used by the speakers been successful?
- Based on the data presented, do you believe it may be possible to discriminate
among people with diabetes, pre-diabetics, and normal individuals?
- If the data indicate that it is possible to discriminate the diabetic condition,
but not the pre-diabetic condition, is there a value in proceeding further by
only analyzing samples from diabetics and normal individuals, and/or should we
continue to analyze pre-diabetic samples?
- Have the data presented provided sufficient preliminary data for moving forward
by analyzing more samples?
- Can the data presented from the various approaches be integrated and is there
any advantage in doing so?
- If the difference(s) between prediabetics and normal individuals and between
prediabetics and people with diabetes are quantitative, is there already enough
data from which to develop diagnostic cutoff values?
