The present study aims to identify factors associated with prediabetes and metabolic complications, and classify individuals based on clinical and biochemical profiles according to insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and fatty liver. This is an observational, cross-sectional study that will be conducted at Assiut University Hospital. Data will be collected through clinical examination, laboratory investigations, and assessment of metabolic profiles.
