Hyperinsulinemia in Acute Intermittent Porphyria

Hormone and Metabolic Research, 1985
Diabetic oral glucose tolerance test together with hyperinsulinemia in a patient with decompensated acute intermittent porphyria is contrasted to normal findings in compensated acute intermittent porphyria (AIP). Results point to the essential role of insulin for the depression of porphyrin precursor overproduction as a mediator of the "glucose effect".

Insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia in hypertension

Journal of Hypertension, 1995
GENETIC PREDISPOSITION: Insulin resistance and reactive hyperinsulinemia occur not only with obesity, impaired glucose tolerance or non-insulin-dependent (type 2) diabetes mellitus, but also in many non-obese, non-diabetic patients with essential hypertension and their currently normotensive, lean, young offspring, as well as in some other conditions ...

A Case of Leprechaunism With Severe Hyperinsulinemia

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1980
This report describes an infant with physical features typical of leprechaunism, including a characteristic facies, hirsutism, and decreased subcutaneous tissue and muscle mass. Intermittent hypoglycemia and severe hyperinsulinemia were documented.

Hyperinsulinemia and VLDL Kinetics

1993
The most frequent lipoprotein abnormality in diabetes mellitus is hypertriglyceridemia. The frequency of hypercholesterolemia is not very different from that found in the nondiabetic population.1,2 In those diabetic individuals who are grossly insulin deficient, the hypertriglyceridemia is due to an accumulation of chylomicrons, the primary ...

Hyperinsulinemia and regulation of energy balance

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1995
Recent data suggest that hyperinsulinemia with euglycemia may favor the restoration of energy balance when one gains body weight. To test the validity of this concept in humans, the data of 24 young men who had been exposed to a 353-MJ overfeeding protocol for 100 d and who were remeasured after a 4-mo follow-up were analyzed. The sample was subdivided

Effects of Hyperinsulinemia in the Primate Fetus

Diabetes, 1985
Nonhuman primate models of gestational diabetes have produced fetopathies most similar to those of the human infant of the mother with gestational diabetes (IGDM). Fetal hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, macrosomia, selective organomegaly, intrauterine death, and placental hyperplasia are hallmarks of the fetopathy of the IGDM.

Atherosclerosis in diabetes: The role of hyperinsulinemia

Metabolism, 1988
Non-insulin-dependent diabetes (NIDDM) is a major cause of premature morbidity and mortality among adults. Macrovascular disease of coronary and peripheral vessels is the primary cause of death in these patients. Numerous experimental and epidemiologic studies have suggested that hyperinsulinemia accelerates the development of atherosclerosis.

Hyperinsulinemia and risk of Alzheimer disease

Neurology, 2004
To explore the association between fasting insulin levels and dementia.Fasting insulin levels were measured from frozen sera using solid-phase chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay in a sample of elderly subjects chosen at random from a cohort of persons aged 65 years and older from northern Manhattan.

Does Hyperinsulinemia Preserve Bone?

Diabetes Care, 1996
OBJECTIVE Obesity and NIDDM are each associated with increased bone mineral density (BMD). We therefore hypothesize that hyperinsulinemia is an osteogenic factor. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Subjects consisted of 411 men and 559 women aged 50–89 ...

Hyperinsulinemia—How Innocent a Bystander?

Diabetes Care, 1993
Hyperinsulinemia is very much in the spotlight. Debate rages as to its significance and role in the etiology not only of NIDDM, but also other morphological and metabolic risk factors for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, including upper-body obesity, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and hyperuricemia.
