Key result
Elevated 1-h post-load plasma glucose levels were significantly associated with arterial stiffness in normotensive men with normal glucose tolerance (β = 0.04, p = 0.01).
Why the study?
Is 1-h post-load plasma glucose associated with arterial stiffness in normotensive subjects with normal glucose tolerance?

May warrant sex-specific caution in normotensives; leaves open causal links and clinical utility pending prospective data.

Is 1-h post-load plasma glucose associated with arterial stiffness in normotensive subjects with normal glucose tolerance?
Effect estimate: β = 0.04
p-value: p=0.01
Elevated 1-h post-load plasma glucose levels are associated with increased arterial stiffness in normotensive, middle-aged men with normal glucose tolerance.
Nakagomi et al. (2017) conducted a cross-sectional in Normotensive with normal glucose tolerance (n=4,970). 1-h post-load plasma glucose was evaluated on Arterial stiffness (brachial-ankle pulse-wave velocity) (β = 0.04, p=0.01). Elevated 1-h post-load plasma glucose levels were significantly associated with arterial stiffness in normotensive men with normal glucose tolerance (β = 0.04, p = 0.01).
