questions
Why did you choose to study blood glucose in this setting ? What proportion of your patients had overt diabetes ? What happen when these patients are excluded form the analysis ? Did you study similar parameters like serum creatinine, haemoglobin, etc ? How did they compare with blood glucose ?
