The Prevelance of Diabetes Mellitus and Prediabetes by Oral Glucose Tolerance Test in Risk Population Applying to a Tertiary Hospital

Abstract

Aim: Diabetes mellitus is an increasingly public health problem all over the world, due to the frequency and problems it creates. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of prediabetes and diabetes mellitus in individuals with no known history of diabetes and risk factors for Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT).

Material and Methods: The proportion of diabetic and prediabetic (impaired fasting glycemia, impaired glucose tolerance) cases was determined by performing OGTT on those who applied to a tertiary care hospital and had a risk factor for diabetes mellitus. The age, sex, fasting blood glucose, OGTT 2nd hour blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin (A1C) values of the cases were determined and differences according to sex were investigated. Comparisons were made according to glycemic subgroups.

Results: Glucose tolerance was normal in 187 cases (36.5%) with risk factor by oral glucose tolerance test. New diabetes was diagnosed in 48 (9.4%) cases. Together Impaired Fasting Glycemia (IFG) and Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT) were detected in 79 cases (15.4%). IFG in 150 cases (29.3%), and IGT 48 cases (9.4%). Men’s age, fasting blood glucose, OGTT 2nd hour glucose and A1C averages and diabetes mellitus ratio were significantly higher than women (p<0.05). Mean averages of diabetic and prediabetic patients, fasting blood glucose, OGTT 2nd hour blood glucose and A1C averages were significantly higher than normal group (<0.05). Meanwhile, the female sex ratio was significantly higher in normal glucose tolerant and prediabetics, while the male sex ratio was higher in diabetics.

Conclusion: OGTT is a stand-alone test for the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus and prediabetes. The prevalence of prediabetes, a risk factor for diabetes, can be detected at high levels in society and varies according to sex.
