Guo W, et al. - Through a cross-sectional study, researchers compared lipid ratios with commonly used indicators of lipid variables for their predictive abilities and assessed the correlation between lipid ratios and abnormal glucose tolerance in clinical practice in a Chinese population. Participants were categorized as normal glucose tolerance (NGT), impaired glucose regulation (IGR), and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). For identifying individuals with abnormal glucose tolerance in a Chinese population, triglycerides and triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol were promising biomarkers and could be used to predict prediabetes and T2DM.
