摘要：Type-2 diabetes (T2D) is a burdensome disease covering a range of diverse pathological mechanisms with a common consequence: the increase in blood glucose concentration or, equivalently, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c). One promising way towards prevention and treatment of T2D is the understanding of individual predictors and mechanisms of its progression. Within the European prospective DIRECT study, we have evaluated predictors and determinants of estimated HbA1c progression considering several metabolic parameters, including indexes of insulin and glucose sensitivity derived via in-house quantitative methods. The analysis suggested that individuals with faster increase in HbA1c are those with lower baseline glucose or insulin sensitivity or with stronger longitudinal decrease of these parameters.
