What does poor glucose tolerance mean?

It is impaired glucose tolerance.

Abnormal glucose tolerance refers to the fact that insulin secreted by islet β cells of diabetic patients (or related diseases) is not as rapid and effective as that of normal people when a certain amount of glucose is injected orally or intravenously, which shows that the blood sugar exceeds 7.8mmol/L( 140mg/dL) 2 hours after taking glucose, the blood sugar rises and the glucose tolerance curve is abnormal. This condition is called impaired glucose tolerance.

Extended data

(1) Normal glucose tolerance:

fasting blood-glucose

Oral glucose reached the peak in 30 min ~ 60 min, and the peak value was

(2) Impaired glucose tolerance

The fasting blood glucose was 6.11~ 7.0mmol/l (110 ~126mg/dl), and the blood glucose level was 7.8mmol/L ≤ 2h after 2h.
