OBJECTIVE: To examine whether individuals with normal glucose tolerance (NGT), whose 1-
h post-load plasma glucose is≥ 155mg/dl, or with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) have an …

OBJECTIVE One-hour glucose during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was recently
proposed as a valuable marker to identify individuals with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) …

Objective Intima-media thickness (IMT) is increased in subjects with prediabetes or newly
diagnosed diabetes. However, no previous studies have evaluated the relationship between …

OBJECTIVE: To observe the relationship of fasting plasma glucose (FPG), postchallenge
plasma glucose (PG)(30, 60, 90, and 120 min during an oral glucose tolerance test [OGTT] …

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) is regarded as a transient
metabolic state leading to type-2 diabetes, and is known to predict future risk of …

Objective Carotid intima–media thickness (IMT) has proved to be an independent marker of
preclinical atherosclerosis. The aim of this study was to determine whether carotid IMT is …

Objective—We sought to determine the rate of progression of carotid atherosclerosis in
persons with normal glucose tolerance, impaired glucose tolerance, and undiagnosed and …

Abstracts Aims/hypothesis. Cardiovascular disease is a well-known severe complication of
impaired glucose tolerance and Type II (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus. The …

Postprandial (pp) hyperglycemia—frequently associated with an increase in cardiovascular
risk factors—may be damaging for the endothelium. So far, little information exists how …

Background and aims Evidence suggests that combining 1-hour plasma glucose≥ 155
mg/dl during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) with glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) …
