Impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance: implications for care.
T ype 2 diabetes is now epidemic. In the U.S., there has been a 61% increase in incidence between 1990 and 2001 (1). There are currently 1.5 million new cases per year, and the prevalence in 2005 was almost 21 million (2).

متن کاملImpaired glucose tolerance, impaired fasting glucose and cardiovascular risk.
To the Editor: Tamita et al reported that abnormal glucose tolerance in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a major risk factor for future cardiovascular events and might critically distinguish high-risk individuals.1 The cardiovascular event-free survival rate in the impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) group and the group with newly diagnosed diabetes were 73% and 67%, respectively...
متن کاملImpaired glucose tolerance, impaired fasting glycaemia and cardiovascular risk.
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus tends to increase year by year and it has a high morbidity and mortality, especially among those who have macro-vascular complication(s) as cardiovascular disease. There are many prevention efforts that have been done, especially primary prevention i.e. prevention of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus development. Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT) and Imparied Fasting Gycaemia (IF...
متن کاملDifferent mechanisms for impaired fasting glucose and impaired postprandial glucose tolerance in humans.
OBJECTIVE To compare the pathophysiology of impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) in a more comprehensive and standardized fashion than has hitherto been done. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We studied 21 individuals with isolated IFG (IFG/normal glucose tolerance [NGT]), 61 individuals with isolated IGT (normal fasting glucose [NFG]/IGT), and 240 healthy control su...
