Key Words	Diabetic peripheral neuropathy; Predictive models; Systematic review; Risk factors
Core Tip	This study conducted a systematic review and comprehensive evaluation of 26 prediction models for diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) from 14 studies. Despite demonstrating satisfactory differentiation and calibration, the predictor models were found to exhibit significant methodological deficiencies and high risks of bias, primarily related to participant selection, outcome measurement, and data analysis. The most common identified predictors were glycated hemoglobin, age, diabetes duration, lipid abnormalities, and fasting blood glucose. Future research should prioritize improving study design and reporting, updating DPN prediction models, and validating their clinical adaptability and feasibility, which is crucial for enhancing the reliability and practical application of these models.
