The present invention generally relates to predicting the risk of developing diabetes in patients who currently do not have diabetes. The invention can involve obtaining a sample from a patient negative for diabetes, conducting an assay on the sample to obtain a level of a glycated albumin, and determining an elevated risk of developing a diabetic condition if said level exceeds a predetermined threshold. Other parameters that may be assessed is the level of glucose, adiponectin, and/or triglycerides. |
