Objective: To investigate the racial/ethnic disparities in hemoglobin A(1c) levels among nondiabetic persons with similar parental history of type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods: We studied a community-based sample of adult offspring of parents with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Measurements included anthropometry, hematology assessments, serial fasting plasma glucose, oral glucose tolerance testing, plasma insulin, hemoglobin A(1c), insulin sensitivity, and beta-cell function, using a homeostasis model assessment.Results: The study included 302 participants (135 white, 167 black). Compared with white participants, black participants had lower fasting plasma glucose levels (91.9 +/- 0.51 mg/dL vs 93.6 +/- 0.50 mg/dL, P = .015), lower area under the curve of plasma glucose during oral glucose tolerance testing (P =
