Published Population Health Studies

January – July 2026N = 14,250 Serum 25-OH Vitamin D Tests

QXL Bengaluru Vitamin D Deficiency Study 2026

💡 Key Finding: 78.4% of urban Bengaluru adults tested had Vitamin D deficiency (<20 ng/mL) or insufficiency (20–30 ng/mL).

Analysis of 14,250 anonymized 25-OH Vitamin D immunoassay results processed at QXL Diagnostics across 40+ Bengaluru localities. Young working professionals aged 25–40 showed the highest deficiency rate (82.1%), strongly associated with indoor desk lifestyles.

54.2%Deficient (<20 ng/mL)
24.2%Insufficient (20–30 ng/mL)
9.6%Optimal (>40 ng/mL)

Q1–Q2 2026N = 18,900 HPLC HbA1c Tests

QXL Bengaluru Diabetes & Prediabetes Screening Report

💡 Key Finding: 31.8% of screened individuals met WHO criteria for Prediabetes (HbA1c 5.7%–6.4%), with 18.5% meeting Diabetes criteria (HbA1c ≥6.5%).

Gold-standard HPLC HbA1c measurements reveal a substantial prediabetic burden in urban Bengaluru. Notably, 42% of individuals with prediabetic HbA1c levels had normal fasting blood sugar, highlighting the importance of HbA1c for early screening.

49.7%Normal (<5.7%)
31.8%Prediabetes (5.7–6.4%)
18.5%Diabetes (≥6.5%)

Q1–Q2 2026N = 9,600 Thyroid Profiles & Anti-TPO Antibodies

QXL Women's Thyroid Health & Anti-TPO Autoimmune Report

💡 Key Finding: 22.4% of tested Bengaluru women exhibited TSH >4.5 mIU/L, with 68% of hypothyroid cases testing positive for Anti-TPO autoantibodies.

Autoimmune Hashimoto's thyroiditis is the leading driver of hypothyroidism among women in Bengaluru. Subclinical hypothyroidism was most frequently detected in women aged 28–45 seeking routine fertility or wellness screening.

16.1%Subclinical Hypothyroid
6.3%Overt Hypothyroid
68.0%Anti-TPO Positive

Q1–Q2 2026N = 6,400 Preventive Health Panels (Age 60+)

QXL Senior Citizen Biomarker & Renal Function Report

💡 Key Finding: 38.2% of tested seniors had an eGFR below 60 mL/min/1.73m² (Stage 3 CKD), despite 45% having 'normal' serum creatinine levels.

This report underscores why relying solely on serum creatinine in elderly patients leads to under-diagnosing renal decline. Automatic eGFR reporting at QXL identified early renal impairment in over 2,400 senior citizens.

38.2%eGFR <60 (Stage 3 CKD)
29.1%Hyperuricaemia (>7.2)
34.5%Elevated hs-CRP
