Description
Eight doctors in China study borderline high blood sugar in dialysis patients in a 2026 paper. The patients use peritoneal dialysis, a home based kidney treatment. Borderline fasting sugar sits below diabetes yet above normal, and its risk in this group was unclear.
The team followed more than two thousand patients at four centers, some for over a decade of records. About nine percent had the borderline state at the start. Over about three years of follow up, that group faced a higher risk of death from heart causes than the normal sugar group. No clear gap showed for deaths overall or for heart events as a class.
