In a population-based epidemiological study, 991 Pima Indians with non-insulin-dependent (Type 2) diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and 288 without diabetes aged Υ15 years were examined for retinopathy by fundus photography with a 45Ψ fundus camera after mydriasis. The photographs were graded using a modifi
## Abstract ## Background While the relationship between impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and circulating interleukinβ6 (ILβ6) is well established, there is no information whether ILβ6 levels are elevated in impaired fasting glucose (IFG). ## Methods To this end, we examined the relationship bet
## Abstract ## Background Age is associated with both impaired glucose and insulin metabolism. To what extent the ageβrelated changes in insulin resistance (IR) and Ξ²βcell function contribute to the increase in prevalence of impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) is le
## Abstract **Background** Both betaβcell dysfunction and decreased insulin sensitivity are involved in the pathogenesis of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and impaired fasting glucose (IFG), while their relative contribution in the progression to type 2 diabetes still remains controversial. The a
