Why the study?
Is impaired glucose regulation associated with cardiovascular risk factors and intima-media thickness independently of adiposity and insulin resistance in adults?
Is impaired glucose regulation associated with cardiovascular risk factors and intima-media thickness independently of adiposity and insulin resistance in adults?
Impaired glucose regulation is associated with worsening cardiovascular risk factors and increased intima-media thickness independently of traditional markers of adiposity and insulin resistance.

May support enhanced CVD monitoring in IGR beyond adiposity; leaves open causal role in atherosclerosis progression.
