Description
In children, the mechanisms implicated in deterioration of glucose homeostasis versus reversion to normal glucose tolerance (NGT) remain uncertain. We aimed to describe the natural history of dysglycemia from childhood to late adolescence and to identify its early determinants. We used baseline (8-10 years, n = 630), 1st follow-up (10-12 years, n = 564) and 2nd follow-up (15-17 years, n = 377) data from the QUALITY cohort of White Canadian children with parental obesity. Children underwent a 2-h...
