  1. * The standard error of prevalence reported here reflects the sampling variability in the predicted diabetes prevalence but does not incorporate uncertainty in the prediction model (parameter uncertainty and stochastic uncertainty) and thus is an underestimate for the true standard error of prevalence. See footnote to Table 2 for an example of how the inclusion of these sources would affect standard errors.
