Brief Summary
Prediabetes is a major public health problem that increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular complications. Young adults represent an important age group in which early detection and intervention may prevent progression of the disease. The present study aims to identify factors associated with prediabetes and metabolic complications, and classify individuals based on clinical and biochemical profiles according to insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and fatty liver. This is an observational, cross-sectional study that will be conducted at Assiut University Hospital. Data will be collected through clinical examination, laboratory investigations, and assessment of metabolic profiles.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Correlation between prediabetes subtypes and metabolic syndrome
Primary Outcome Title: Correlation between prediabetes phenotypes and metabolic syndrome Outcome Measure: Prevalence (%) of metabolic syndrome within each prediabetes phenotype (IFG, IGT, combined IFG/IGT, elevated HbA1c). Description: Metabolic syndrome will be assessed at baseline according to the IDF definition. Participants will be classified into prediabetes phenotypes, and the proportion of individuals meeting metabolic syndrome criteria within each phenotype will be recorded. Time Frame: Baseline Unit of Measure: Percentage (%)
At baseline (cross-sectional assessment during enrollment).
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Factors affecting the correlation between prediabetes phenotypes and metabolic abnormalities (age, gender, family history, body physique, waist circumference and physical activity.
At baseline (cross-sectional assessment during enrollment)
Study Arms (1)
Group A impaired glucose tolerance_Group B - Impaired Fasting Glucose Group C - Impaired HbA1c
Interventions
Participants will be classified into groups based on impaired fasting glucose, impaired post-prandial glucose, or impaired HbA1c according to ADA criteria
Eligibility Criteria
The study population will consist of young adults aged 18-40 years attending outpatient clinics at Assiut University Hospital. Participants will be screened for prediabetes using fasting plasma glucose, 2-hour postprandial glucose, and HbA1c tests. Only individuals diagnosed with prediabetes according to ADA criteria (impaired fasting glucose, impaired glucose tolerance, or elevated HbA1c) will be included
You may qualify if:
- adults diagnosed with prediabetes
You may not qualify if:
- previous diagnosis of overt diabetes
- other causes of CKD (e.g. urinary tract infection)
- other causes of liver disease (e.g. HBV infection),
- use of medications that alter glucose or lipid metabolism (e.g. corticosteroids),
- current pregnancy
