Hyperproinsulinaemia in Impaired Glucose Tolerance

Clinical Science, 1993
1. Basal circulating concentrations of islet B cell products were measured using two-site monoclonal antibody-based immunoradiometric assays after a 10 h overnight fast in a group of non-obese subjects with recently diagnosed impaired glucose tolerance (World Health Organization criteria).

Impaired Glucose Tolerance

Treatments in Endocrinology, 2002
Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) is determined by measuring plasma glucose levels 2 hours after glucose loading in the oral glucose tolerance test. There is good evidence from epidemiologic and prospective trials [e.g. Diabetes Epidemiology: Collaborative Analysis of Diagnostic Criteria in Europe (DECODE)] linking IGT with the development of type 2 ...

Daytime variations in glucose tolerance in people with impaired glucose tolerance

Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice, 2006
To determine whether glucose tolerance varies throughout the day in people with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). We studied 15 healthy IGT, and 18 matched normal glucose tolerant (NGT) individuals. Blood samples were taken every 30-120 min during a 24h period in which all individuals had three mixed meals and nocturnal sleep. We measured glucose, free

Impaired glucose tolerance as a disease

The American Journal of Cardiology, 2001
Current criteria for diagnosing diabetes, based on fasting plasma glucose levels during administration of the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), are poorly sensitive and are only modestly predictive of microvascular risk. The period after administration of OGTT is far more predictive and more closely resembles the postprandial state where ...

Cardiovascular Prevention in Subjects with Impaired Fasting Glucose or Impaired Glucose Tolerance

High Blood Pressure & Cardiovascular Prevention, 2010
Cardiovascular diseases still represent the leading cause of mortality and hospitalization, particularly in Western countries. As a consequence of the marked changes observed on the demographic characteristics of the general population, the improved survival rate after an acute cardiovascular event, and the progressive rise of costs (mostly due to ...

Metabolic heterogeneity in impaired glucose tolerance

Metabolism, 1997
Type II (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus is a metabolically heterogeneous condition, and is invariably preceded by impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). We examined whether metabolic heterogeneity is a feature of IGT. Three subject groups were studied: IGT subjects with two or more living non-insulin-dependent diabetic relatives (IGTWF, n = 17 ...

Impaired Glucose Tolerance in Pregnancy ‐ Is It of Consequence?

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1996
Summary: This study was done to determine if impaired glucose tolerance in pregnancy was associated with increased maternal and neonatal morbidity and if so, whether the increased morbidity was due to the confounding factors of increased maternal age and maternal obesity.

Tardive dyskinesia and impaired glucose tolerance

Human Psychopharmacology: Clinical and Experimental, 2002
AbstractThe authors examined the role of impaired glucose metabolism in the pathophysiology of tardive dyskinesia in schizophrenic patients with and without persistent TD. Glucose tolerance and insulin levels were determined in 86 patients with persistent tardive dyskinesia and in 108 patients without tardive dyskinesia.

Impairment of glucose tolerance in hyperthyroid cats

Journal of Endocrinology, 1989
ABSTRACT Intravenous glucose tolerance tests were performed in eight adult cats before and after a 4-week treatment with thyroxine. The untreated cats had a mean fasting blood glucose concentration of 7·7 ± 0·3 mmol/l and a mean fasting insulin concentration of 88 ± 31 pmol/l which were not significantly different from mean fasting glucose and ...

Major depression and impaired glucose tolerance

Experimental and Clinical Endocrinology & Diabetes, 2000
Hypercortisolism is a frequent endocrine sign in major depression and cortisol is a well-known anti-insulinergic hormone. Impaired oral glucose tolerance has already been described in major depression. However, thus far no information is available on spontaneous, circadian insulin secretion in patients.
