Input
Anthropometric measurements, laboratory and imaging tests, clinical findings and, when available, the genetic test result.
App for diagnostic support of FPLD
Assess the diagnostic criteria for familial partial lipodystrophy
The form applies, value by value, the mandatory, major and minor criteria defined by the consensus and indicates which of the three diagnostic combinations was satisfied — when the data provided allows that conclusion.
Start assessment
Public form, no sign-up and no identifying data.
Structure of the assessment
From the data entered to the result.
The consensus defines FPLD by three groups of criteria — mandatory, major and minor — combined into three possible diagnostic routes. Every route requires at least one mandatory criterion, which documents fat scarcity in specific regions of the body; no number of major or minor criteria replaces that requirement.
Assessment
Each value is compared to the cut-off published in the consensus. No criterion is adjusted, weighted, or replaced by another test.
Report
The result shows each criterion individually, the diagnostic route satisfied — if any — and the data that led to that classification.
The three diagnostic combinations
Criterion 1
01
≥ 1 mandatory + ≥ 2 major
Criterion 2
02
≥ 1 mandatory + ≥ 1 major + ≥ 2 minor
Criterion 3
03
≥ 1 mandatory + genetic test with a pathogenic variant of a known FPLD subtype

Missing data
Leaving a field blank is not the same as answering "no".
01
The criterion follows the value
The measurement is compared to the cut-off as soon as it is entered. The criterion never asks whether the value is within range — it calculates.
02
"Not informed" is not "no"
An empty field is recorded as not informed. When that absence could change the conclusion, the report shows an indeterminate result, not a negative one.
