Determining the 1-hour post-load glucose which identifies diabetes in Africans: Insight from the Africans in America study
Authors' conclusion
Our data suggest 1-h PG≥183 mg/dL maybe more optimal for Africans.
Study context
- Population
- Africans (Africans in America study)
- Exposure
- 1-h post-load glucose ≥183 mg/dL vs ≥209 mg/dL for diagnosing diabetes
- Outcome
- Optimal 1-h post-load glucose threshold identifying diabetes (vs 2-h PG ≥200 mg/dL)
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
Optimal 1-h PG threshold for diabetes in Africans
1-h PG threshold that may be more optimal for Africans than the proposed ≥209 mg/dL
≥183 mg/dL
Observational data: associations, not effects.
