متن کاملShould we consider performing oral glucose tolerance tests more frequently in postmenopausal women for optimal screening of impaired glucose tolerance?
OBJECTIVE To investigate an optimal screening protocol for impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and type II or non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DM) by using fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) in postmenopausal women. DESIGN One hundred consecutive postmenopausal women were screened with FPG determination, and then all underwent an OGTT. Basal serum lipid a...
