  1. *The Gini impurity gives an estimate, which parameters are most important for the random forest to predict the condition of interest (in this case: diabetes). A higher decrease of the Gini impurity represents a higher importance for this parameter. 1: Body mass index; 2: gamma-Glutamyltranerase; 3:C-reactive protein; 4: standard deviation.
