Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT) and Impaired Fasting Glycaemia (IFG) are intermediate conditions in the transition between normality and diabetes. People with IGT or IFG are at high risk of progressing to type 2 diabetes, although this is not inevitable. 5, record 1, English, - impaired%20fasting%20glucose

En dehors du diabète défini par une glycémie à jeun veineuse supérieure ou égale à 7 mmol/l(1, 26 g/l), l'American Diabetes Association a identifié deux anomalies de la tolérance glucosée : l'intolérance au glucose définie par une glycémie à la deuxième heure de l'hyperglycémie provoquée par voie orale(HGPO) comprise entre 7, 8 et 11 mmol/l(1, 4 et 1, 9 g/l) et l'hyperglycémie modérée à jeun(HMJ) où la glycémie veineuse à jeun est comprise entre 6, 1 et 6, 9 mmol/l(1, 1 et 1, 25 g/l). 2, record 1, French, - hyperglyc%C3%A9mie%20mod%C3%A9r%C3%A9e%20%C3%A0%20jeun

Les pilotes de chasse utilisent des manœuvres destinées à augmenter la tolérance aux accélérations. La plus répandue est la manœuvre Ml, qui augmente la tolérance d’environ 1, 5 g. Elle consiste à enfoncer la tête et le cou entre les épaules, se pencher en avant, contracter les muscles du tronc et des membres, expirer de façon lente et régulière. 1, record 2, French, - man%26oelig%3Buvre%20Ml

The STiNG G-suit follows the concept of extended bladder coverage over the lower extremities for increased G-protection. The extended coverage provided by the STING suits works on the principle that increased bladder coverage will cause a larger increase in lower body tissue pressure versus older style, cut-away G-suits. It is believed that this will allow for better maintenance of HLBP [head-level blood pressure] under high +Gz and, therefore, increased G- tolerance. 1, record 3, English, - STING%20suit
