Bold values represent P < 0.05. CPH, Cox proportional hazards regression model; ANN, artificial neural network; RF, random forest; GBM, gradient boosting machine; GRS, genetic risk score; AUC, the area under receiver operating characteristic curve; BS, brier score; NRI, net reclassification improvement; CI, confidence interval.

a

Conventional model included FPG, WC, TG, parental history of diabetes, and hypertension.

b

ΔAUCs were the differences of AUCs among conventional-genetic-combined models and conventional model.

c

NRI showed the reclassification of the prediction models with genetic risk scores compared to conventional model.
