Sumario:Oral glucose tolerance testing (OGTT) is the primary method to screen for and diagnose cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD). Diagnostic thresholds as currently defined are based on microvascular complications seen in type 2 diabetes. Abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT) refers to OGTT glucose elevations outside the normal range and encompasses both impaired and indeterminate glucose tolerance. Current guidelines define impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) as a 2-hour glucose of 140–199 mg/dL (7.8–11 mmol/L) and indeterminate glucose tolerance (INDET) as any mid-OGTT glucose ≥ 200 mg/dL (11.1 mmol/L) with a normal fasting and 2 h glucose. There is growing evidence that AGT also has associations with CF-centered outcomes including pulmonary decline, hospitalizations, and weight loss. Here we aim to review the historical emergence of glucose tolerance testing, review relevance to risk stratification for CFRD, discuss alternate cutoffs for identifying AGT earlier, and highlight the need for larger, future studies to inform our understanding of the implications of IGT and INDET on CF health.
