Recent trial results suggest that the consumption of a low glycemic index (GI) diet is beneficial in the prevention of high blood glucose levels. Identifying active hypoglycemic substances in ordinary foods could be a significant benefit to the management of blood glucose. It has been hypothesized that noodles with Bombyx mori powder are a low GI food. We evaluated GI and changes in postprandia...

E ffective control of blood glucose in toddlers with diabetes can be difficult for a variety of reasons. Unpredictable eating patterns with changes in the timing of meals and quantities eaten, as well as different levels of activity, are the major factors that impact on blood glucose levels at this age. The Diabetes Control and Complications Trial showed the importance of good glycemic control ...

Blood was drawn from 10 fasted, healthy volunteers and stored under standard blood bank conditions in citrate-phosphate-dextrose-adenine (CPDA-1). Blood was sampled before storage (Day 0) and on Days 5, 12, 19, 26, and 35. Laboratory testing for glucose, HbAla + b, HbAlc, pyruvic acid, lactic acid, adenosine triphosphate (ATP), 2, 3-diphosphoglycerate (2,3DPG), plasma free hemoglobin (Hb) and p...

conclusions an intraoperative dex infusion maintains blood glucose levels at a constant level relative to baseline in diabetic patients within 24 hours postoperatively. the frequency of hyperglycemia was low in group a in the perioperative period compared with that in the control group (group b). methods twenty diabetic patients were randomly allocated to two groups (n = 10). group a patients w...

Aeromonas hydrophyla is a gram negative bacteria, which often infects tilapia and causes internal damage to the liver, spleen kidneys. Tilapia Sultana, Nirwana Larasati are superior strains that have fast growth resistant disease. This study was conducted observe compare physiological response of three infection through blood profiles. The profile can describe health status fish. parameters obs...

statement of the problem: reducing the patients' stress can prevent, or at least, limit the increase in blood glucose level. purpose: the study compares the effect of propofol and midazolam on blood glucose level in the patients undergoing dental implant surgery. the effect of pre-operational stress on blood glucose level during the surgery is also evaluated. materials and method: this prospect...

Sources of plasma glucose and glucose turnover were investigated in 8-week-old (pre-diabetic) and 13-week-old (diabetic) Zucker (fa/fa) rats after a 24-h fast. Intraperitoneal (2)H(2)O was administered and [3,4-(13)C(2)]glucose and [U-(13)C(3)]propionate were infused into conscious active rats. (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance analysis of monoacetone glucose derived from blood glucose indicated...

OBJECTIVE We evaluated the respective value of insulin, C-peptide and proinsulin levels in 33 patients with endogenous hyperinsulinism and in 67 controls to determine the best parameters and thresholds to make or to rule out the diagnosis of endogenous hyperinsulinism. RESULTS When blood glucose levels were below 2.5 mmol/l, insulin was <21 pmol/l in 8-35% of the patients and in all controls;...
