  abstract  = {The use of glucose point-of-care testing (POCT) devices for the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (DM) is an ongoing controversy. In patient management, glucose concentrations are determined by POCT and core laboratory glucose methods, and the values are commonly compared even though the samples collected are different, namely, capillary whole blood and venous plasma. In individual patients it is difficult to distinguish between factors that can influence the results, such as sample type and measuring procedure. In this study, Glucose concentrations obtained using POCT and core laboratory instruments were assessed to duplicate typical scenarios experienced in healthcare. Corresponding diagnosis rates of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and DM based on fixed, method-independent cutoffs were compared.},
