Document Summary
1- prediabetes and control both used only men in the same age group (25-35) (no significant differences). The bmi in both groups had no significant differences. The body composition (body fat % and whr) in both groups was also had no significant differences. Lipid profile (hdl, ldl, and serum triglycerides) had no significant differences between the two groups. Blood glucose levels (hba1c, fasting glucose, post prandial blood glucose) were significantly higher in the prediabetes group versus the control group. (p<0. 01) 2a- figure 1 shows significantly higher imcl content in the pre-diabetes group versus the control group, indicating a higher risk of insulin resistance in the prediabetes group. (p<0. 01) 2b-hba1c is a measure of glycemic control over the past 2 to 3 months. Imcl, the fat build-up in the cytosol of muscle, has a significant role in glycemic control indicated by the significant correlation between hba1c and imcl. (p<0. 01)
