Abstract
Background: Active diagnosis of rapidly growing type 2 diabetes (T2D) is very important. Whether the FINDRISC questionnaire can be used as a first-stage screening tool in the Uzbek population is unclear, as anthropometric parameters and the impact of each risk factor may differ in different populations.
