Characteristics in patients with prediabetes according to glucose tolerance.

Data were presented as mean (± SD) or number (%). Means and proportions were compared by ANOVA and Fisher’s exact test, respectively. P values testing the overall difference among NGT, IGT and 2-h NDM groups. Definitions of hypertension, hyperuricemia, 2-h NDM (2-h newly diagnosed diabetes) were in methods. BMI, body mass index; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; HDL, high density lipoprotein; LDL, low density lipoprotein; log-CRP, logarithmic transformed C-reactive protein; FPG, fasting plasma glucose; 2-h PG, 2 hour postload glucose; SUA, serum uric acid; e-GFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate. International system of units (SI) conversion: plasma glucose 1 mg/dl = 1/18 mmol/l; SUA 1 mg/dl = 59.5 µmol/l.
