Impaired fasting glucose prevalence surge among Iranian adolescents in a decade: The Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study

Impaired fasting glucose (IFG) is associated with incident diabetes, cardiovascular risk, and markers of atherosclerosis in early adulthood. We aimed to explore the 10‐year change in IFG prevalence among adolescent participants of the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study, a population‐based study from Iran.
