Glucose: Fasting and Two-Hour Glucose Levels



• Here you can see fasting and two-hour glucose levels after a 75 gram glucose challenge for both the lipodystrophy and the control groups.1

• On average, fasting glucose levels were normal between both groups.

• However, HIV-infected patients with lipodystrophy demonstrated significantly increased two hour glucose levels.
