Abstract
The prevalence of CI/near-diabetes was 8.3%. Undiagnosed diabetes mellitus was rare. One third of adolescents with diabetes mellitus could be classified as having type 2 diabetes mellitus. The adult model of the progression of insulin resistance to type 2 diabetes mellitus in adolescents may be valid. Despite the increase in the overweight population since NHANES III, abnormalities in glucose metabolism have not changed significantly.
