Abstract
What is already known on this topic?The incidence of diabetes is on the rise in the world, and it is increasingly affecting young people. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) has published the 2020 Diabetes Medical Standard, but there is no blood glucose standard for teenagers by age and sex.What is added by this report?In this study, quantile regression was used to analyze the data of National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) and found that blood glucose varied significantly based on demographics.What are the implications for public health practice?This study provides reference for formulating the normal ranges of adolescent blood glucose and helping to screen out high-risk groups at an early stage for key interventions. The quantile regression method can give a set of curves, which could better describe the situation.
