One-hour postload glucose levels predict mortality from cardiovascular diseases and malignant neoplasms in healthy subjects.

ABSTRACT: Little is known about biological markers, at levels within their normal ranges which might predict future mortality. We aimed at identifying possible predictors of future death in participants before pathological conditions manifest. We analyzed data from a population-based prospective cohort study (the Ohasama study), comprised of 993 participants who underwent 75-g oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs). We collected blood parameters, including those measured during OGTTs, and divided the study population into two groups based on the median value of each parameter, followed by analyses of mortality during follow-up in both groups. In addition, we extracted subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) (n = 595) and analyzed the association between 1-h postload plasma glucose during O
