Clinical investigation on glucose tolerance in liver cirrhosis.
Forty-six patients with liver cirrhosis were classified into three groups according to glucose tolerance test and the presence or absence of diabetic state. The results of xylitol tolerance test, galactose tolerance test, BSP retention, ICG disappearance rate and other routine liver function tests were compared between these three groups. The results show that liver cirrhosis in patients with o...

متن کاملDiagnosis and Clinical Implications of Diabetes in Liver Cirrhosis: A Focus on the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test
The liver and skeletal muscles are responsible for maintaining glucose metabolism. As chronic liver disease progresses to cirrhosis, the loss of liver function is exacerbated and leads to the deterioration of skeletal muscle. Consequently, impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and insulin resistance are often observed in patients with liver cirrhosis. Early stage cirrhosis with hepatogenous diabetes...
متن کاملForearm glucose uptake in cirrhosis and its relationship to glucose tolerance.
1. Oral glucose-tolerance tests (100 g) were carried out in six patients with stable well-compensated cryptogenic cirrhosis and in 12 control subjects. 2. In confirmation of previous studies, patients with cirrhosis had high post-glucose serum insulin levels and were glucose intolerant (mean incremental glucose area 954 +/- 186 compared with 482 +/- 35 mmol 3 h-1 l-1 in controls; P < 0.05). 3. ...
