Using Fasting Glucose and Glycated Hemoglobin in The Determination Prediabetes: A Case Report

Prediabetes (PD) is a serious health condition where glycemic levels are high, but not enough to be diagnosed as diabetes.There are still ambiguities in the diagnosis of PD.Although the borderline between PD and diabetes is recognized by all, to date, we cannot use this phrase for norma/PD.We report on a 55-year-old woman.Her blood tests at the time of admission showed that there was a rise in fasting glucose (115 mg/dL), glycated hemoglobin (41 mmol/mol), and a normal 2-hour glycemic level after a 75 g load oral glucose tolerance test (118 mg/dL).Based on these indicators of carbohydrate metabolism, a PD diagnosis was observed.
