Nonfasting Plasma Glucose is a Better Marker of Diabetic Control Than Fasting Plasma Glucose in Type 2 Diabetes

Abstract

In type 2 diabetes, postlunch PG and extended postlunch PG are better predictors of glycemic control than fasting plasma glucose (FPG). We therefore suggest that they be more widely used to supplement, or substitute for, FPG in evaluating the metabolic control of type 2 diabetic patients.
