Is the 1-hour Post-Load Glucose Level by 75g Oral Glucose Tolerance Test a New Risk Factor in Predicting Atherosclerosis?

Kilinç Suna , Demirtaş Tuna , Atay Zeynep

Background and Objectives: Recent studies demonstrated that a 1-hour post-load plasma glucose (1-h PG) value of ≥155 mg/dL during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is a new risk factor for predicting atherosclerosis. Herein, we evaluated whether individuals with normal glucose tolerance (NGT), whose 1-h PG is ≥155mg/dl, or with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) have an increased carotid intima–media thickness (CIMT), as compared with NGT in...
