Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Early disruptions in systemic glucose regulation may occur even before overt glycemic abnormalities manifest. This study investigated whether patterns of inter-regional glucose uptake coordination, derived from whole-body ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT, could reveal latent subclinical metabolic phenotypes among normoglycemic adults. METHODS: We analyzed 536 clinically normoglycemic adults (fasting blood glucose < 6.1...
