Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA)—Volume 285, No. ... 2109-2113
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to find out if participants with impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and impaired post load glucose would be associated with higher risk of Type 2 diabetes among older white populations.
Hypothesis
Participants with impaired fasting glucose and impaired post load glucose will prove to have higher risk of developing Type 2 diabetes.
Methods
The Hoorn Study began in 1989 as a study of glucose intolerance in a general Dutch elderly population. ...
