  1. NGT normal glucose tolerance, IFG impaired fasting glucose, IGT impaired glucose tolerance. SBP systolic blood pressure, DBP diastolic blood pressure.
  2. Data are means and (SD), or numbers and proportions (%). IFG and IGT were compared to NGT using general linear models for continues variables, and logistic regression for categorical variables and adjusting for differences in age.
