[Abstract] Glucose tolerance test is a standard procedure that addresses how quickly exogenous glucose can be cleared from blood. Specifically, uptake of glucose from the blood by cells is regulated by insulin. Impairment of glucose tolerance (i.e, longer time to clear given amount of glucose) indicates problems with maintenance of glucose homeostasis (insulin resistance, carbohydrate metabolism, diabetes, etc). According to the WHO, in a standard oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), glucose level should be below 7.8 mmol/L (140 mg/dl) at 2 h. Levels between this and 11.1 mmol/L (200 mg/dl) indicate “impaired glucose tolerance”, and any level above 11.1 mmol/L (200 mg/dl) confirms a diagnosis of diabetes.
[摘要] 葡萄糖耐量试验是解决外源葡萄糖可以从血液中清除的标准程序。 具体地，通过胰岛素调节细胞从血液摄取葡萄糖。 葡萄糖耐量的损害（即，更长的时间来清除给定量的葡萄糖）表明维持葡萄糖内稳态（胰岛素抵抗，碳水化合物代谢，糖尿病等）的问题。
根据WHO，在标准口服葡萄糖耐量试验（OGTT）中，2小时时葡萄糖水平应低于7.8 mmol/L（140 mg/dl）。 该浓度与11.1mmol/L（200mg/dl）之间的水平表示"葡萄糖耐量降低"，并且高于11.1mmol/L（200mg/dl）的任何水平证实了糖尿病的诊断。
