Elevated hemoglobin glycation index identify non-diabetic individuals at increased risk of kidney dysfunction [PDF]
Hemoglobin glycation index (HGI), calculated as the difference between the observed value of HbA1 and the predicted HbA1c based on plasma glucose concentration, is a measure of the individual tendency toward non-enzymatic hemoglobin glycation which has ...

Preliminary evidence supports circulating microRNAs as prognostic biomarkers for type 2 diabetes. [PDF]
Background:Circulating microRNAs are emerging as potential prognostic biomarkers for the development of type 2 diabetes. However, microRNAs are also associated with complications from impaired glucose metabolism (e.g. endothelial cell function).

The Significance of Impaired Fasting Glucose Versus Impaired Glucose Tolerance [PDF]
OBJECTIVE—The American Diabetes Association recommended substituting 2hBS (glycemia at the second hour of an oral glucose tolerance test [OGTT]) for fasting blood glucose (FBS) in screening for glucose intolerance. It is debated whether these tests measure the same abnormality and relate to defective insulin secretion or resistance. This study examines

Prevalence of pre-diabetes and undiagnosed diabetes in the Mollerussa prospective observational cohort study in a semi-rural area of Catalonia [PDF]
Objectives: To assess the prevalence of undiagnosed diabetes and pre-diabetes in the healthy population in the Mollerussa cohort. As a secondary objective, to identify the variables associated with these conditions and to describe the changes in ...

Decreased basal hepatic glucose uptake in impaired fasting glucose [PDF]
This research aimed to define the pathophysiological defects responsible for the elevated fasting plasma glucose (FPG) concentration and excessive rise in post-load plasma glucose observed in individuals with impaired fasting glucose (IFG).We used tracer techniques to quantify basal splanchnic (primarily hepatic) glucose uptake and glucose fluxes ...

Aims. Despite the very clear association between polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and dysglycemia, few studies have explored the continuum of glycemic alterations leading from minor glucose abnormalities to overt diabetes.

Retinal vessel diameters and risk of impaired fasting glucose or diabetes: the Rotterdam study [PDF]
The association between a smaller retinal arteriolar-to-venular ratio (AVR) and incident diabetes may be due to arteriolar narrowing, venular dilatation, or both.

Lipocalin-2, glucose metabolism and chronic low-grade systemic inflammation in Chinese people [PDF]
Background Lipocalin-2 is a novel adipokine with connection to insulin resistance. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association of serum lipocalin-2 with glucose metabolism and other metabolic phenotype in a large-scale Chinese population ...
