Abstract

Background: Diabetes and prediabetic conditions are growing cardiovascular risk factors. Better understanding and earlier recognition and treatment of dysglycemia-related risk are health priorities. We assessed the predictive value of 3 proposed new markers for diabetes and cardiovascular risk. We tested whether the plasma levels of (1) asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), (2) cortisol/cortisone (Cl/Cn) ratio, and (3) C-peptide predicted glycemic status, coronary artery disease, and death or myocardial infarction (MI) in a nested case-control cohort (N = 850) with normal fasting glucose (
