Abstract
Diabetes is currently classified based on pathogenetic mechanisms and Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) can be considered a residual heterogeneous category. Factor analysis (FA) identifies a limited number of calculated variables related to a larger number of measured parameters, capable of explaining most of their variance. Aim of the present study was to verify the feasibility of the application of FA for the development of pathogenetic models of individual cases of T2DM, using three available databases.
