“…This may represent potential harm to PD patients, since HbA1c has been strongly associated with a high risk for diabetes, CV disease and all cause mortality in general non-diabetic patients and CKD patients. [1][2][3]13 Although HbA1c it's not considered the ideal method to evaluate glycaemic control in the uremic setting, 14,15 it is still widely available and can be an useful tool to compare groups and stratify those at high risk. Its ideal levels are still not established.…”

“…Recent reports suggest that the relationship between hyperglycemia and cardiovascular disease (CVD) may extend below the limits currently defined as diabetes, since higher levels of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) are independent predictors of mortality in general population and non-diabetic CKD patients. [1][2][3] Insulin resistance was also identified as an independent predictor of cardiovascular events and mortality in general and CKD patients. 4,5 The initiation of peritoneal dialysis (PD) represents an additional risk to glucose metabolism, due to the absorption of dextrose contained in the dialysate, which potentially intensifies carbohydrate disturbances 6 .…”

“…Impaired glucose tolerance and diabetes mellitus are wellknown risk factors for coronary heart disease (CHD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) [1][2][3][4]. A fasting blood glucose level or a fasting blood glucose level plus 2 h post-glucose load (75 g OGTT) are usually used to diagnose diabetes mellitus [5].…”

“…Other studies showed that familial aggregation of type 2 diabetes also relates to the presence of cardiometabolic abnormalities in children [4][5][6][7][8]. CVD and type 2 diabetes often co-occur [3,9,10] and share risk factors such as hypertension, overweight, unhealthy diet and lack of physical activity. However, previous studies assessing cardiometabolic markers in children lacked data on family history of both CVD and diabetes, and it is unclear whether CVD and diabetes history are independently associated with cardiometabolic markers in children.…”
