Removed the following passage that compares the use of the OGGT to Rorschach tests. This analogy is confusing and not terribly exact. Using a glucose tolerance in this context resembles use of a Rorschach test in that it is often used to support a diagnosis that the patient and doctor are already reaching agreement on based on other evidence, but it is inadequate by itself to confirm or refute the diagnosis (unlike its use for diabetes).

I am not really sure the analogy is really that important in the context of the pathophysiology of Diabetes. The application and interpretation of OGTT has different methodology and mechanics within the disease than Rorschach tests in psychological disorders.

As diagnostic for diabetes, several sources list: fasting > 92mg/dL; 1hr OGTT > 180mg/dL; 2hr OGTT > 153mg/dL... This is not what is listed in the article. Which is correct? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.70.135.63 ( talk) 00:06, 7 June 2013 (UTC)
The interpretation section is mixing up information regarding gestational diabetes and type 2 diabetes. None of the cited references actually talk about a 1hr OGTT result for type 2 diabetes, and only the 2r OGTT result is considered. For gestational diabetes, the 1hr result seems to be relevant. Someone who knows this stuff better than me should clean up the interpretation section.-- Sarang — Preceding

The glucose tolerance test was first described by Jerome Conn, of Conn's disease fame.

A section should be included for gestational diabetes of which there are three different OGTT:
Regarr ( talk) 16:27, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
The results section of this page is a bit confusing (aren't the 75 gram and 2 hour OGTT the same test?)
And it has incorrect information. According to the NIH [1], the fasting glucose levels are set as:
The listed values in the results section show 110 as the cutoff. Regarr ( talk) 16:27, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
In the section "Results", it says, for the serum glucose test that you do at home with the meter, your fasting glucose should be below 6.1. At the bottom of the section it says that when you go to the doctor for the Glucose Tolerance test that your fasting blood glucose should be below 5.1. If the test hasn't started yet, how can you have two different allowable levels? This can't be right. Longinus876 ( talk) 15:12, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
Re the difference between capillary and venous testing: older WHO documents find fairly consistently that capillary values are similar at 0h, and about 1.1mmol/l higher at 2 hours, reasonably consistent with Nevander, Sofia; Landberg, Eva; Blomberg, Marie; Ekman, Bertil; Lilliecreutz, Caroline (26 November 2020). "Comparison of Venous and Capillary Sampling in Oral Glucose Testing for the Diagnosis of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus: A Diagnostic Accuracy Cross-Sectional Study Using Accu-Chek Inform II". Diagnostics. 10 (12): 1011. doi: 10.3390/diagnostics10121011. ISSN 2075-4418. Older sources: https://apps.who.int/iris/rest/bitstreams/51753/retrieve (1994). https://applications.emro.who.int/dsaf/dsa509.pdf (2006). This could be added to the article, but should perhaps be discussed first. I also added "A 2020 study on pregnant women for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) found that 0-hour venous and capillary levels were similar, but that 2-hour samples were different. The authors compared their study with others, and concluded that capillary samples could be used for diagnosis of GDM during pregnancy using corrected cutoffs with acceptable accuracy in an antenatal care setting."
