Pilot study for the standardization of insulin immunoassays with isotope dilution liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry.
BACKGROUND An international working group convened by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) called for a reference measurement procedure for use in a trueness-based standardization project of insulin immunoassays. In view of this demand, we conducted a pilot study to investigate the feasibility of such a standardization project with our isotope dilution-liquid chromatography/tandem mass spect...
متن کاملStandardization of insulin immunoassays: report of the American Diabetes Association Workgroup.
BACKGROUND Circulating insulin concentration in serum or plasma provides important information for the estimation of insulin secretion and insulin resistance. Currently, lack of standardization of insulin assays hinders efforts to achieve consistent measures for treatment guidelines. METHODS A Workgroup convened by the American Diabetes Association evaluated 12 different commercial insulin me...
متن کاملInsulin Assay Standardization
D iabetes, primarily type 2 diabetes, has increased in prevalence throughout the world and current projections suggest a continued rise worldwide for at least the next quarter century. Insulin resistance, which frequently accompanies obesity, is known to be a key factor in the pathogenic development of type 2 diabetes (1– 6). Type 2 diabetes occurs when insulin secretion is no longer sufficient...
متن کاملDefining and reporting hypoglycemia in diabetes: a report from the American Diabetes Association Workgroup on Hypoglycemia.
I atrogenic hypoglycemia causes recurrent morbidity in most people with type 1 diabetes and in many with type 2 diabetes and is sometimes fatal. It also impairs defenses against subsequent hypoglycemia. Furthermore, the barrier of hypoglycemia precludes maintenance of euglycemia over a lifetime of diabetes; thus, full realization of the benefits of glycemic control is rarely achieved. Therefore...
متن کاملINSULIN REQUIRING DIABETES MELLITUS AS A FEATURE Of PHEOCHROMOCYTOMA: REPORT OF A CASE
We report the case of a 65 year old man with recent onset of insulin requiring diabetes mellitus, frequent attacks of anginal chest pain, paroxysmal hypertension poorly controlled with three medications, hyperlipidemia, and mild renal insufficiency. The patient was found to have pheochromocytoma of the left adrenal gland, resection of which resulted in total resolution of diabetes, hyperte...
