Inuit anthropometry and insulin resistance

Effect of 8 week resistance training on adiponectin, Insulin resistance, insulin sensivity and HbA1c levels in overweight men

Introduction Physical activity is the most important factors of energy consumption in humans. Since energy absorption can regulated the adiponectin expression positively or negatively. Also, altering energy consumption with exercise may affect the adiponectin levels. Therefore, the present study aimed to the effect of 8 weeks resistance training on adiponectin, insulin hemostasis and HbA1c lev...

Magnesium 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...

Measurement of obesity by anthropometry and bioelectric impedance analysis: correlation with fasting lipids and insulin resistance in an Asian population.

Obesity is associated with increased coronary artery disease risk. This is at least partially mediated by increased prevalence of other risk factors such as dyslipidaemia and insulin resistance. Various anthropometric indices have been used to quantify generalised and central obesity. Correlations between these measurements and risk factors are specific to the population and findings cannot be ...

P-183: TGF-? Level and Insulin Resistance during Normal Pregnancy

Fasting Hyperglycemia and Insulin Resistance in Colorectal Adenomatous Polyps

OBJECTIVES: To investigate fasting glucose, glucose tolerance, insulin resistance and insulin–like growth factor 1 in patients with or without colorectal polyps. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, we evaluated fasting glucose, insulin, insulin–like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), lipid profile and glucose tolerance test in 103 patients undergoing colonoscopy (52 normal and 53 wit...
