Artificial pancreas, to replace the use of insulin injections and pumps and the need to manually test glucose levels Symptoms of high blood sugar (hyperglycemia) include:
Learn about blood glucose levels and regulation in the human body. Discover how blood glucose can be normal, high, or low, and how this is an...
OBJECTIVE: To assess the association between high but nondiabetic blood glucose levels and the risk of death from all causes, coronary heart disease (CHD), cardiovascular disease, and neoplasms. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: We studied the 20-year mortality of non-diabetic, working men, age 44-...
High carbohydrate intake is one of the important causes of metabolic syndrome that induces obesity and is diagnosed by three of the following five criteria; impaired fasting blood glucose (FBG), high fasting blood triglyceride, low high-density lipoprotein (HDL), high blood pressure, and abnormal ...
Children may need fewer carbohydrates. Check with their doctor so you know what to do when their blood sugar is low. Causes of High Glucose Levels If you live with diabetes, it's common for your blood sugar to climb too high. For most people, that means a reading above 180 mg/dL. Bu...
During a median follow-up period of 8.2 years, 332 deaths from all causes and 82 deaths from cardiovascular disease were observed. Based on the RCS, the TyG index was found to have a U-shaped association with all-cause and CVD mortality in young patients with diabetes, with threshold values...
When a high-carbohydrate meal is ingested, the glucose in the blood causes rapid secretion of insulin (Fig. 20.4). Insulin causes rapid uptake of glucose by almost all tissues, especially the muscles, the liver, andadipose tissues. If the muscles are not exercising, the glucose is stored as...
Blood glucose is the amount of sugar in a person's blood at any given time. Having too high or too low blood glucose levels can...
42 Inconsistency across studies was assessed with the I2 statistic,43 with an I2 value of less than 25% deemed to have low heterogeneity; 25% to 75%, medium heterogeneity; and greater than 75%, high heterogeneity. Publication bias and selective reporting were assessed using the Egger test ...
The significance of differences between survival curves was tested using the log-rank test. Significant variables in the univariate analysis were considered as variables for the multivariate analysis of survival. The latter was performed by the Cox regression mode. P<0.05 was considered statistically ...
