Glucose control of basal insulin secretion in diabetes

Open access

Abstract

The plasma insulin response to both a small increase and decrease in the plasma glucose has been studied in normal and diabetic, non-obese subjects. In a second investigation the plasma insulin concentrations were measured during a gradual reduction of the raised fasting plasma glucose of diabetes to normal levels. In both studies, diabetic patients were found to have a markedly impaired response of the fasting plasma insulin to small changes in plasma glucose. These results do not support the suggestion that stimulated and not basal insulin secretion is impaired in diabetes. Both modes of secretion are probably via the same B-cell release mechanism, which is deficient in diabetes. There was a gradation of response between maturity onset and juvenile onset diabetics.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Fasting plasma insulin concentration is largely determined by the glucose concentration.

    “The fasting plasma insulin concentration is largely determined by the glucose concentration [3]”

    From Homeostasis model assessment: insulin resistance and ?-cell function from fasting plasma glucose and insulin concentrations in man (1985) · cites this paper as [3]

    The Results and Discussion (page unavailable in our copy) show that changing plasma glucose affects basal insulin secretion. But they also report markedly impaired responses in diabetic subjects, including cases where insulin remained nearly constant despite a substantial glucose decrease. The paper therefore supports glucose as an influence, but not the unqualified claim that it largely determines fasting insulin concentration. (LLM, conf=0.84)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
