Bayesian Analysis of Glucose Dynamics during the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
In this paper, we propose a model of the dynamics of the blood glucose level during an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT). This dynamic includes the action of insulin and glucagon in the glucose homeostasis process as the reaction of an oral stimulus.

Adiponectin and adiponectin receptors in insulin resistance, diabetes, and the metabolic syndrome.

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2006
Adiponectin is an adipokine that is specifically and abundantly expressed in adipose tissue and directly sensitizes the body to insulin. Hypoadiponectinemia, caused by interactions of genetic factors such as SNPs in the Adiponectin gene and environmental

INSULIN AND ATHEROSCLEROSIS

The Lancet, 1969
The idea that excessive concentrations of insulin might contribute to the development of atherosclerosis appeared in the mid 1960s and the evidence was first reviewed in a paper published in 1969 [1]. Since then, data, both clinical and experimental, has continued to accumulate, most of it supportive of the hypothesis, although some of the details have

Transfer of intestinal microbiota from lean donors increases insulin sensitivity in individuals with metabolic syndrome.

Gastroenterology, 2012
Alterations in intestinal microbiota are associated with obesity and insulin resistance. We studied the effects of infusing intestinal microbiota from lean donors to male recipients with metabolic syndrome on the recipients' microbiota composition and ...

Reinforcement Learning-Based Adaptive Insulin Advisor for Individuals with Type 1 Diabetes Patients under Multiple Daily Injections Therapy [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
The existing adaptive basal-bolus advisor (ABBA) was further developed to benefit patients under insulin therapy with multiple daily injections (MDI). Three different in silico experiments were conducted with the DMMS.R simulator to validate the approach of combined use of self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) and insulin injection devices, e.g ...

History of insulin [PDF]

Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives, 2012
The advancement of diabetes treatment has gone from crude extracts of insulin and accidental discovery of sulfa-like drugs in antibiotics to the development of drugs based on improved understanding of the pathophysiology of diabetes mellitus. This article will review the history of the discovery and development of insulin.
