Saving time by replacing the standardised two-hour oral glucose tolerance test with a one-hour test

An oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) combining fasting (FPG) and 2-hour plasma glucose (2hPG) is the most sensitive method for detecting type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Since it is considered time-consuming, we aim at validating a previously proposed screening algorithm based on a 1-hour plasma glucose (1hPG) with a 12 mmol/L threshold.Nine-hundred-eighteen patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) without known T2DM from the EUROASPIRE V...
