| Abstract | In 2003, the American diabetes Association (ADA) recommended that the definition of impaired fasting glucose (IFG) be changed from 110-125 to 100125 mg/dL . This study examined the effect of different cut points for IFG on the incidence of diabetes in Tehran’s urban population. Materials and Methods: From among the participants of the Tehran Lipid Glucose Study, after excluding subjects aged < 20 years, those with known or newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes, and those with missing values of weight, height, or other variables or lost to follow-up , data of 4728 subjects was used in this cohort study. They were followed for diabetes incidence (based on fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and glucose tolerance test) for 3.6 years. Participants were divided into different groups: Normoglycemia | en |
