From High Blood Sugar Warning Signs to Metabolic Syndrome: Analyzing the Chain Reaction Between Abnormal Glucose and Lipid Metabolism and Insulin Resistance
Hyperglycemia is often a precursor to diabetes and is closely intertwined with metabolic syndrome. This article defines the red line between hyperglycemia and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and delves into the clustering of metabolic diseases centered on insulin resistance. By analyzing the synergistic pathogenic mechanisms of abdominal obesity, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, it reveals the...
