Summary: This study found that consuming >= 5 eggs per week was associated with lower fasting glucose and blood pressure levels, and lowered the risks of developing IFG or T2D and high blood pressure.

Summary: The serum visfatin levels in non-diabetic subjects were found to be associated with the presence and severity of coronary artery disease (CAD). The study showed significantly lower serum visfatin levels in patients with CAD compared to those with normal coronary arteries, while fasting glucose levels were elevated in CAD patients. Both visfatin and impaired fasting glucose (IFG) were independently associated with the presence of CAD in non-diabetics. Furthermore, serum visfatin levels were negatively related to the severity of CAD in subjects with IFG. These findings suggest that visfatin may play an important role in the development of CAD.

Summary: Our study aimed to construct and validate a clinical and laboratory-based nomogram (CLN) model for predicting impaired fasting glucose (IFG) risk. Risk predictors were screened and used to construct the CLN model, and its accuracy was evaluated using ROC curve, AUC values, and calibration curve. DCA was used to estimate clinical benefit. The performance of the CLN model was further evaluated in an independent validation dataset.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the association between impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and incident albuminuria in a non-diabetic Chinese community-based cohort. The results showed that IFG was independently associated with incident albuminuria and there was a gradable risk relationship. This suggests that screening for albuminuria should be emphasized in population with IFG to prevent and treat it in an early stage.

Summary: This study compared health behaviors and health literacy between individuals with non-IFG and IFG, identifying factors associated with IFG by sex. In males, age, high BMI, frequent drinking, and nutrition label usage were significant factors, while low economic status and high BMI were affecting factors in females. Employment status, perceived stress, and job type were not related to IFG in both genders. Strategies should target specific groups to improve health behaviors and literacy, with healthcare providers understanding barriers for effective service delivery.

Summary: This study found that exposure to PYRs is significantly associated with the risk of developing IFG and T2DM in rural Chinese populations. Inflammatory indicators NE and BASO partly mediate the association between PYRs, particularly cyfluthrin, and T2DM.

Summary: The study revealed that individuals without traditional ASCVD risk factors are at increased risk of developing CVD with higher levels of abnormal fasting plasma glucose, underlining the importance of prevention strategies targeting elevated FPG levels in addition to other traditional ASCVD risk factors.

Summary: This study evaluated the association between different definitions of glomerular hyperfiltration (GHF) and carotid plaque in a health checkup cohort. The results showed that GHF was positively associated with the presence of carotid plaque, and GHF defined based on creatinine was more sensitive in identifying carotid plaque. Therefore, creatinine-based GHF could serve as a useful surrogate marker for cardiovascular disease surveillance in asymptomatic individuals.

Summary: The study revealed a significant association between uric acid levels and markers of prediabetes, insulin resistance, and insulin sensitivity in overweight/obese youth. Higher uric acid levels were correlated with elevated markers of impaired glucose metabolism, particularly post-challenge conditions.

Summary: This study investigated the association between relative hand grip strength and glycemic status. The results showed that individuals with lower relative hand grip strength had a higher risk of both diabetes and impaired fasting glucose. This association was stronger in younger adults compared to older adults.

Summary: Obesity-related hyperfiltration causes an increase in GFR and hyperalbuminuria, which can be reversed after bariatric surgery. Body weight and aldosterone are the main factors mediating changes in eGFR in obesity and bariatric surgery, while albuminuria is associated with glucose homeostasis.

Summary: This study assessed the prevalence of type 2 diabetes, impaired fasting glucose, general obesity, and abdominal obesity in patients with bipolar disorder. The findings showed that patients with bipolar disorder had a higher prevalence of these conditions compared to the control group.

Summary: The study found that increased postoperative fasting glucose levels after MT treatment were associated with unfavorable clinical outcomes at 90 days and an increased risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage. Factors such as older age, higher baseline NIHSS score, and higher postoperative NLR were also related to unfavorable outcomes after MT treatment.

Summary: Long-term increase in fasting blood glucose (FBG) is associated with higher risk of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) in individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM), while a long-term decrease in FBG is not associated with reduced SCA risk. Preventing increase in FBG can have significant impacts on public health in terms of SCA prevention.

Summary: This study found that having a high waist circumference, either on its uncorrected or corrected for height values, was not significantly associated with impaired fasting blood glucose in a sample of Mexican children and teenagers.
