IDF 2025 Updates: Global Clinical Practice Recommendations for Type 2 Diabetes Management by Prof. Stephen Colagiuri
Colagiuri S, presented a session at IDF World Diabetes Congress 2025 from 7th-10th April 2025 in Bangkok. Intermediate hyperglycemia (IH) includes IGT, IFG, and HbA1c. The WHO and ADA criteria for defining IH differ for IFG and the WHO does not have an HbA1c criterion. The 1-h OGTT has been recently advocated as an option. The general target of <7.0% (<53 mmol/mol) should ne personalised, balancing reducing complications, minimising hypoglycemia. HbA1c is important but has not been confirmed as an independent risk factor for complication.
