Authors' conclusion

The combination of 1-h PG and age serves as a potential predictor of GI development in individuals with NGT.

Study context

Population
Japanese individuals with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) who completed a 5-year follow-up; 75-g OGTT used to diagnose glucose intolerance (GI)
Participants
1,008 individuals
Exposure
1-h PG ≥ 8.3 mmol/L and age ≥ 57 years vs reference
Outcome
GI development (impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or T2D, and/or impaired fasting glucose)
Follow-up
5 years
Methodological details5-year follow-up
  • 5-year follow-up

As reported in the abstract

Observational data: associations, not effects.

Further findings

T2D susceptibility SNPs (genetic risk)

Genetic risk was associated with aggravation of 1-h PG levels
