Key result
Cardiovascular risk factors including pulse-wave velocity were evaluated in subjects with IFG and IGT, but quantitative results are not reported in the truncated abstract.
Why the study?
Do cardiovascular risk factors and arterial stiffness differ between Japanese subjects with isolated impaired fasting glucose and those with isolated impaired glucose tolerance?
Population
1,541 Japanese subjects undergoing periodic health examinations at a single center
Comparison
Isolated impaired fasting glucose or isolated… vs Normal glucose tolerance or other glucose…
Design
Cross-sectional

Arterial stiffness differences between isolated IFG and IGT remain unresolved in Japanese adults; leaves open targeted CV risk stratification by prediabetes subtype.
Cross-Sectional (n=1,541)
No
Do cardiovascular risk factors and arterial stiffness differ between Japanese subjects with isolated impaired fasting glucose and those with isolated impaired glucose tolerance?
This study evaluates differences in atherosclerotic risk factors, including arterial stiffness, between different categories of prediabetes in a Japanese population.
Morita et al. (2006) conducted a cross-sectional in Impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) (n=1,541). Impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance vs. Normal glucose tolerance was evaluated on Cardiovascular risk factors including pulse-wave velocity (PWV). Cardiovascular risk factors including pulse-wave velocity were evaluated in subjects with IFG and IGT, but quantitative results are not reported in the truncated abstract.
