Fasting Glucose and All-Cause Mortality by Age in Diabetes: A Prospective Cohort Study

Fasting Glucose and All-Cause Mortality by Age in Diabetes: A Prospective Cohort Study

To examine associations between fasting glucose and mortality and to identify the levels associated with lowest mortality by age in diabetes. A total of 359,645 Korean adults with known prevalent diabetes participated in health screening during 2001-2004 and were followed up until 2013. U-curve asso...

Zusammenfassung:To examine associations between fasting glucose and mortality and to identify the levels associated with lowest mortality by age in diabetes. A total of 359,645 Korean adults with known prevalent diabetes participated in health screening during 2001-2004 and were followed up until 2013. U-curve associations were found. Fasting glucose levels associated with the lowest mortality were ∼90-130 mg/dL, except for in those aged 18-44 years (∼80-95 mg/dL). Multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios of fasting glucose
