In men, GH, insulin and glucose measurements during OGTT75 were highly reproducible. In women, however, basal and GH nadirs were significantly higher midcycle (P < 0·05).Conclusions In acromegalic patients, there is no difference in GH nadirs and test interpretation after the ingestion of ...
MEASUREMENTS: Weight, height, BMI, body fat, glucose, insulin and leptin at baseline and during OGTT. Variations of the above parameters were calculated from the area under the curve (AUC). RESULTS: Fasting leptin concentrations and AUC were higher in obese than in normal weight women. In ...
We hypothesized that the clinical information could be improved by including measurements at different time points from the OGTT in the medical decision-making process. One hundred ten women with previous gestational diabetes (pGDM) and 41 controls were included 3-6 mo after delivery and underwent ...
Hormonal studies are controversial and receptor measurements inconclusive. A local conversion of androgens has been suggested. We have studied glandular and adipose fractions obtained from mastectomy of 3 adolescent boys. Microsomal suspension of the tissues was incubated with 1 4 ~ testosterone or 3~-...

Understanding Oral Glucose Tolerance: Comparison of Glucose or Insulin Measurements During the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test with Specific Measurements of In... The extent to which the oral glucose tolerance test can be used to estimate insulin secretion and insulin resistance has been evaluated by compa...
SUBJECTS: Twenty-seven obese women aged 34卤1.57 y with BMI 37.1卤0.8kg/m虏 and 16 normal weight women, aged 32卤1.13 y with BMI 23.6卤0.3 kg/m虏 formed the experimental group, while 10 obese and 10 normal weight females with similar age and BMI were used as controls. MEASUREMENTS: ...
From 1979 to 1984, 1970 non-diabetic men and women completed an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), physical and biochemical measurements as well as a questionnaire related to lifestyle and medical background. During the years 2000–2004, 853 survivors of the original cohort were interviewed and...
circulating plasma glucose and insulin measurements. Glucose tolerance statuses were evaluated according to World Health Organization (WHO) criteria [25]. Individuals were thus classified as having: NGT when their fasting plasma glucose (FPG) was <110 mg/dL (6.1 mmol/L) and their 2 h post-load...
