Prediabetes defined by HbA1c and by fasting glucose: differences in risk factors and prevalence

Aims To investigate, in a sample of nondiabetic adults from a Spanish community, the differences between prediabetes as defined by HbA1c (“H-prediabetes”) and by fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (“F-prediabetes”) in regard to prevalence and the influence of potential risk factors, adjusting the latter for confounders.
