The Effect of Hypothyroidism on Glucose Tolerance in Dogs
… is thought to cause abnormalities in glucose homeostasis, but the effect on glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity has not been determined to date. Hypothesis/Objectives: The purpose of the study was to investigate whether hypothyroidism has an effect on glucose tolerance and …

Abscisic acid ameliorates glucose tolerance and obesity-induced inflammation
… white adipose tissue (WAT) inflammation and glucose tolerance in db/db mice. We next further examined the effect of ABA on the phenotype of adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs). In doing so, we discovered two separate ATM populations which differed in their expression of the macrophage surface …

The Effect of Slowly Digesting Carbohydrates on Abnormal Glucose Tolerance Curves
… the effect of slowly digesting food on the glucose tolerance curves of patients who had abnormal blood sugar levels.</p> <p>The experimental method was used. Patients were selected by criteria which included certain symptomology and background of diabetic history. Fifty-two patients were …

Glucose tolerance in patients with abnormal endometrial bleeding during and after the climacteric
… of the problems and implications of disturbed glucose tolerance. As far back as 30 years B.C. gross manifestations of the disease now known as Diabetes Mellitus were recognized. Despite great advances, however, there is much that is still unknown. The history of many a malady begins with the …

Glucose tolerance, plasma insulin, and plasma glucagon in relation to obesity in chickens
Relationships among glucose tolerance, plasma insulin, and plasma glucagon were examined in chicks developed through selection for high (HW) and low (LW) body weight, and in F, crosses (HL) between HW males and LW females. At 21, 42, 63, and 84 days of age, chicks from each population were …

Dietary Fat and Sugar Induce Obesity and Impair Glucose Tolerance in Prepubertal Pigs
… and blood parameters associated with impaired glucose clearance. Prepubertal female pigs weaned at 21 d of age were fed control (CON), refined sugar (SUG), fat (FAT), and sugar-fat (SUGFAT) diets in a completely randomized arrangement for 16 wk. Calories from fat were 8.9% for CON, 5.6% for …

The effects of melatonin injection on glucose tolerance in intact and pinealectomized laboratory rats
… inhibits MAO activity and thereby reduces glucose mediated insulin release. The objective of this work is to investigate the effects of melatonin on insulin release, and on glucose mediated insulin release in the intact and in the pinealectomized rat.

Studies on the influence of sex hormones on glucose tolerance and insulin secretion in the rat
… function is associated with an improvement of glucose tolerance and an elevation of plasma insulin levels.This interpretation is substantiated by observations that treatment of ovariectomized females with oestradiol, progesterone and a preparation of gonadotrophins produces similar alterations …

The effect of lifestyle modification on the insulin-signaling cascade among subjects with impaired glucose tolerance
Impaired glucose tolerance(IGT) is characterized by insulin resistance and lifestyle modification is considered to have positive effects on glycemic control and reducing the risk of diabetes. Recently, defects in the insulin-signaling cascade, especially PI-3 kinase pathway, have been implicated in …

Peripheral polyneuropathy in type 2 diabetes mellitus and impaired glucose tolerance. Correlations between morphology, neurophysiology, and clinical findings
… nerve fiber loss in type 2 diabetes and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), in relation to glucose dysmetabolism, and clinical and neurophysiological measures of PN. Methods: Subjects were recruited from a prospective, population-based study of males from Malmö, Sweden (6956 responders). From this …

Determination of the effects of pulse starches (pea, lentil and faba bean) versus cornstarch on growth performance and glucose tolerance in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
… The second meta-analysis examined the effect of glucose, maltose and dextrin on fish growth. The overall effect size was 0.39 and P value was 0.69. The third meta-analysis examined the effects of native starches (corn, tapioca and potato starches) on fish growth. The overall effect size was 0.79 …
