Abstract
The Expert Committee of the American Diabetes Association (ADA) had suggested criteria for the diagnosis of diabetes with lowering of the fasting plasma glucose cut-off from 7.8 mmol/l(140 mg%) to 7.0 mmol/l(110 mg%) This change was based on the predictive power for microvascular disease in cross-sectional trials as well as on the equivalence with the 2 h-plasma glucose value of 11.1 mmol/l after a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). The rationale for these cut off points will be examined over here.
