Hemoglobin (Hb) regulates the endothelial function by modulating the bio-availability of NO at the tissue level. A significant direct relationship is present between the Hb levels and endothelial functions in patients with Type 2 diabetes. Testing whether this association also exists in subjects with prediabetes is important because prediabetes is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality. Therefore, we investigated the association of Hb both with the classical cardiac risk factors and the markers for endothelial dysfunction and inflammation, in subjects with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT).
