Assessment of the impact of insulin resistance on pancreatic exocrine functions in obese patients
We aimed to show whether insufficiency develops in pancreatic exocrine functions since the insulin resistance period or not. We measured the anthropometric parameters, blood glucose profile parameters and fecal elastase-1 (FE-1) levels of a total of 65 ...
