Abstract

This study demonstrates a negative and nonlinear relationship between BMI and reversion to normoglycemia in Chinese patients with IFG. Minimizing BMI to 21.7 kg/m<sup>2</sup> in patients with IFG through aggressive intervention may significantly increase the probability of returning to normoglycemia.
