Risk of Death Associated With Reversion From Prediabetes to Normoglycemia and the Role of Modifiable Risk Factors.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

Individuals with prediabetes have a higher risk of death than healthy individuals. However, previous findings have suggested that individuals with reversion from prediabetes to normoglycemia may not have a lower risk of death compared with individuals with persistent prediabetes.

Objectives

To investigate the associations between changes in prediabetes status and risk of death and to elucidate the roles of modifiable risk factors in these associations.

Design, setting, and participants

This population-based prospective cohort study used data from 45 782 participants with prediabetes from the Taiwan MJ Cohort Study who were recruited between January 1, 1996, and December 31, 2007. Participants were followed up from the second clinical visit to December 31, 2
