dysglycemia
A term analagous to dyslipidemia used in reference to disorder(s) of glycemic control.
Notes:
- oral glucose tolerance test is superior to hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) for detecting dysglycemia in patients with coronary artery disease [1]
- strongest predictors of cardiovascular outcomes are 2-hour post-load glucose levels >= 9 mmol/L & HbA1c >= 5.9%
