Pectin and complications after gastric surgery: normalisation of postprandial glucose and endocrine responses.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pectin has been shown to minimise the fall in blood glucose seen in patients who are troubled by hypoglycaemia attacks after gastric surgery. We therefore performed 50 g glucose tolerance tests with and without 14.5 g pectin on 11 post-gastric surgery patients. After pectin, the high postprandial levels of glucose, insulin, and enteroglucagon were significantly reduced as was the fall in blood glucose between 90 and 120 minutes. These effects of pectin may reflect slower uptake of glucose from the gastrointestinal tract and provide evidence to support the use of unabsorbable carbohydrate gelling agents in treating hypoglycaemia after gastric surgery.

Jejunal feeding is followed by a greater rise in plasma cholecystokinin, peptide YY, glucagon-like peptide 1, and glucagon-like peptide 2 concentrations compared with gastric feeding in vivo in humans: a randomized trial12
Background: Jejunal feeding is preferred instead of gastric feeding in patients who are intolerant to gastric feeding or at risk of aspiration. However, the impact of gastric feeding compared with that of jejunal feeding on postprandial circulating plasma glucose and amino acid concentrations and the associated endocrine response in vivo in humans remains largely unexplored. Objective: We compa...
متن کاملThe effect of low glycemic index foods taken at dinner on blood glucose and insulin levels in patients with type 2 diabetes
Introduction: Diabetes is one of the most common endocrine diseases. With regard to the importance of blood glucose regulation in prevention of diabetic complications, glycemic and insulinemic response determination of foods containing carbohydrates is greatly important. The purpose of the present study, therefore, was to determine the effect of low glycemic index foods taken at dinner on fasti...

Diabetes mellitus is the most common endocrine disease in the world, the prevalence of which is perhaps one to two percent of the world population. Most findings show that hyperglycemia is the most important cause of diabetic complications although genetic factors may also play a role. In this observational analytical historical cohort survey, data were gathered from all diabetic pa...
متن کاملChanges in post-prandial glucose and pancreatic hormones, and steady-state insulin and free fatty acids after gastric bypass surgery.
BACKGROUND Changes in the multiple mechanisms that regulate glucose metabolism after gastric bypass (RYGB) are still being unveiled. The objective of this study was to compare the changes of glucose and pancreatic hormones [C-peptide, glucagon, and pancreatic polypeptide (PP)] during a meal tolerance test (MTT) and steady-state insulin and free fatty acid (FFA) concentrations during euglycemic-...

We questioned whether a dietary fibre supplement known to lower fasting plasma cholesterol concentrations can also lower the postprandial plasma cholesterol, glucose and insulin concentrations when it is administered just before a meal. Two studies were conducted in healthy middle-aged volunteers of both sexes in whom the fasting plasma total cholesterol concentrations were above normal. In the...
