Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the role of one-hour post-load plasma glucose (1 h-PG) levels as an early marker for Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) risk by analyzing a longitudinal cohort over ten years.
- It categorizes participants into three groups based on their initial 1 h-PG levels and measures insulin sensitivity and β-cell function at different stages.
- Results indicate that individuals with higher 1 h-PG levels have a greater risk of developing T2D and experiencing decreased insulin sensitivity and β-cell function, highlighting the potential for early interventions in those with high 1 h-PG but normal glucose tolerance.
Background: The Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score is an immunonutritional test tool based on serum albumin, total cholesterol, and lymphocyte counts. It has been studied as a simple prognostic predictor for various carcinomas. This study aimed to investigate the association between preoperative CONUT scores and the clinicopathological characteristics in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients.
