This flowchart depicts a study on screening for Cystic Fibrosis-Related Diabetes (CFRD) using a 50-gram Oral Glucose Challenge Test (GCT). It starts with 185 participants, of which 51% had normal glucose tolerance (NGT), and 49% had elevated GCT results (≥147 mg/dL). Of those elevated, 12 underwent an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), revealing 9 had CFRD. The chart includes icons representing sets of ten participants and uses arrows to illustrate the screening process. A legend clarifies the symbols used for NGT.
A random 1-hour, 50g oral glucose challenge test is an effective screening tool for cystic fibrosis-related diabetes and can reduce the need for annual OGTT by 50% in people with cystic fibrosis. #DCare #Article
