Why the study?
Do the WHO and ADA glucose tolerance categories similarly predict all-cause and CVD mortality and have similar reproducibility in elderly individuals?
Do the WHO and ADA glucose tolerance categories similarly predict all-cause and CVD mortality and have similar reproducibility in elderly individuals?
Both WHO and ADA diagnostic criteria for diabetes identify individuals at similarly increased risk for all-cause and CVD mortality with comparable test-retest reproducibility.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Both criteria similarly stratify mortality risk in elderly; leaves open preference for guideline adoption.
