Does glucose intolerance increase the risk of CHD incidence, CHD mortality, and total mortality in middle-aged and older Japanese-American men?
Glucose intolerance is independently associated with a dose-response increase in the 23-year risk of CHD and total mortality in middle-aged and older Japanese-American men.
These results suggest a dose-response relation of glucose intolerance at baseline with CHD incidence, CHD mortality, and total mortality, independent of other risk factors, in this cohort of middle-aged and older Japanese-American men.
Rodríguez et al. (1999) studied this question.
