چکیده
OBJECTIVE To determine whether insulin resistance and secretion differ in obese premenopausal African-American women with and without glucose intolerance. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A total of 63 women underwent oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs). A total of 48 women underwent frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance tests (FSIGTs). Insulin resistance was determined from the insulin sensitivity index (S(I)) from the FSIGT. Insulin secretion during the OGTT was determined by (I(30 min) - I(0 min))/(G(30 min) - G(0 min)) and during the FSIGT by the acute insulin response to glucose (AIRg). The disposition index, the product of AIRg and S(I), was used to determine whether AIRg was adequate to compensate for insulin resistance. Statistical analyses included one-way analysis of variance with Bonferroni corrections for multiple comparisons and regression analyses. RESULTS The women were divided into three groups: nonobese glucose tolerant (n = 32), obese glucose tolerant (n = 17), and obese glucose intolerant (n = 14). The BMI of the three groups were 24.8 +/- 2.3, 37.8 +/- 5.5, and 42.0 +/- 7.6 kg/m(2) (mean +/- SD), respectively (P < 0.0001). The ages of the three groups were 34.9 +/- 8.4, 32.1 +/- 5.0, and 41.1 +/- 6.3 years (P = 0.011). S(I) was higher in the nonobese women than in the obese glucose-tolerant women (3.99 +/- 1.44 vs. 2.66 +/- 2.14 l x mU(-1) x min(-1), P = 0.03). S(I) was similar in the obese glucose-intolerant and obese glucose-tolerant women (2.12 +/- 1.27 vs. 2.66 +/- 2.14 l x mU(-1) x min(-1), P = 0.9). OGTT showed that insulin secretion was lower in the glucose-intolerant than the obese glucose-tolerant women (1.73 +/- 1.38 vs. 3.62 +/- 2.11, P = 0.005). FSIGT showed that AIRg was not significantly lower in glucose-intolerant than in obese glucose-tolerant women (807 +/- 665 vs. 1,253 +/- 655 mU x l(-1) x min, P = 0.078). The disposition index was lower in glucose-intolerant than in obese glucose-tolerant women (1,324 +/- 1,061 vs. 2,656 +/- 1,415, P = 0.014). CONCLUSIONS Obese premenopausal African-American women with and without glucose intolerance have a similar degree of insulin resistance but differ in insulin secretion.

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) which is characterized by menstrual irregularities (due to chronic anovulation) and hyperandrogenism is one of the most common endocrine disorders of women at reproductive age. The precise cause of PCOS is unknown, but it seems that several factors may have role in its pathogenesis. Insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion are common finding...

Introduction: Ghrelin, a gut neuropeptide, plays an important role in appetite, food intake and weight regulation. The aim of the present study was to determine serum ghrelin in relation to fasting glucose concentration and effective markers in glucose level (insulin, insulin resistance, beta- cell function) in none-diabetic obese males. Methods: We studied the baseline glucose, serum insulin a...

First-degree relatives of individuals with type 2 diabetes are at increased risk of developing hyperglycemia. To examine the prevalence and pathogenesis of abnormal glucose homeostasis in these subjects, 531 first-degree relatives with no known history of diabetes (aged 44.1 +/- 0.7 years; BMI 29.0 +/- 0.3 kg/m(2)) underwent an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Newly identified diabetes was f...
