    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: Dysglycemia is prevalent in cystic fibrosis (CF) but screening with annual oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTT) can be burdensome. We investigated alternate glycemic markers-hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5AG), fructosamine (FA), and glycated albumin (GA)-as screening tests for CF-related diabetes (CFRD) and pre-diabetes (CFPD) in youth with CF as defined by the gold-standard OGTT 2-hour glucose (2hG). METHODS: Youth 10 to 18 years with CF had a 1,5AG, FA, GA, HbA1c, and 2-hour OGTT collected. Correlations between all glycemic markers and 2hG were evaluated. Area under the receiver operative characteristic (ROC-AUC) curves were generated. Optimal cut points for predicting CFPD (2hG ≥ 140 mg/dL) and CFRD (2hG ≥ 200 mg/dL) were determined. RESULTS: Fifty-eight youth with CF were included (2hG < 140, n = 16; CFPD, n = 33; CFRD, n = 9; 41% male, mean ± SD age 14.2 ± 3.6 years, BMI z-score 0.0 ± 0.8, % predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second [FEV1] 89.9 ± 15.1, % predicted forced vital capacity [FVC] 103.2 ± 14.6). ROC-AUC's for all alternate markers were low for CFPD (0.52-0.67) and CFRD (0.56-0.61). At a cut point of 5.5%, HbA1c had 78% sensitivity (95% CI: 0.45-0.94) and 41% specificity (95% CI: 0.28-0.55) for identifying CFRD, correlating to a ROC-AUC of 0.61 (95% CI: 0.42-0.8). CONCLUSIONS: All alternate markers tested demonstrate poor diagnostic accuracy for identifying CFRD by 2hG.
