The Prevalence of Insulin Resistance in Patients with Psoriasis
Objective: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease. It may cause poor quality of life. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of insulin resistance in patients with psoriasis to clarify the relationship between insulin resistance and psoriasis. Materials and Methods: This case-control study was conducted on 110 patients with psoriasis and 110 healthy people. Fasting se...
متن کاملDual endothelin receptor blockade acutely improves insulin sensitivity in obese patients with insulin resistance and coronary artery disease.
OBJECTIVE Endothelin (ET)-1 is a vasoconstrictor and proinflammatory peptide that may inhibit glucose uptake. The objective of the study was to investigate if ET (selective ET(A) and dual ET(A)+ET(B)) receptor blockade improves insulin sensitivity in patients with insulin resistance and coronary artery disease. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Seven patients (aged 58 +/- 2 years) with insulin resi...
متن کاملAssessment of Insulin Resistance with Two Methods: HOMA-IR and TyG Index in Iranian Obese Women
Objective: The aim of the present study is assessment of insulin resistance (IR) in obese women by TyG-Index and compared with the HOMA-IR index. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 61 obese women aged 18-45 years. Weights, height, waist circumference (WC) were measured and body mass index (BMI) was calculated and recorded. A sample of fasting serum was collecte...
متن کاملComparison of Insulin resistance in obese women with and without Acanthosis Nigricans
Background and aim: Acanthosis nigricans (AN) is characterized by hyperpigmented velvety plaques of body folds and neck. Insulin can have a role in the pathogenesis of this disease and hyperinsulinemia as a consequence of insulin resistance may stimulate the formation of the characteristic plaques of AN. In this study insulin resistance was compared in obese women with and without AN.</sp...
متن کاملMagnesium supplementation enhances insulin sensitivity and decreases insulin resistance in diabetic rats
Objective(s): Diabetes mellitus has been suggested to be the most common metabolic disorder associated with magnesium deficiency. This study aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of magnesium supplementation on insulin receptor activity in elderly type 2 diabetes using a rat model and to provide experimental evidence for insulin resistance improvement by magn...
