Clinical Trials

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study evaluates a subset of people with isolated Impaired Fasting Glucose with Normal Glucose Tolerance (i.e., IFG/NGT) believed to have normal β-cell function in response to a glucose challenge, suggesting that – at least in this subset of prediabetes – fasting glucose is regulated independently of glucose in the postprandial period. To some extent this is borne out by genetic association studies which have identified loci that affect fasting glucose but not glucose tolerance and vice-versa.
