Impaired postprandial glucose utilization in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
Abstract
The importance of impaired glucose utilization in the pathogenesis of postprandial hyperglycemia in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) is controversial. Three methods were used to assess glucose utilization following ingestion of a mixed meal in 18 NIDDM and 12 nondiabetic subjects. Dual glucose isotopes were used to determine first-pass splanchnic glucose uptake, suppression of endogenous glucose production, and systemic glucose utilization. Leg balance was used to evaluate skeletal muscle glucose metabolism, and systemic and limb indirect calorimetry were used to assess glucose and lipid oxidation. NIDDM subjects had marked postprandial hyperglycemia as compared with nondiabetics (15.35 +/- 0.72 v 5.83 +/- 0.28 mmol, P < .001), accompanied by lower postprandial insulin (179 +/- 25 v 253 +/- 46 pmol, P < .01) and elevated plasma free fatty acids ([FFA] 569 +/- 34 v 314 +/- 20 mumol/L, P < .001). Cumulative postprandial glucose appearance was nearly twofold greater in NIDDM (82.2 +/- 4.7 v 48.7 +/- 4.9 g.5h, P < .001) due to increased endogenous glucose production (56.4 +/- 4.8 v 24.5 +/- 1.9 g, P < .001), whereas first-pass splanchnic uptake of ingested glucose was normal in NIDDM. Cumulative postprandial glucose utilization in NIDDM, after correction for urinary glucose, was unchanged from postabsorptive rates, a pattern also found for postprandial glucose oxidation. Cumulative leg glucose uptake was somewhat less in NIDDM subjects (123 +/- 18 v 173 +/- 14 mumol/100 mL leg tissue.5 h, P = .06), whereas lactate and alanine net release across the leg were nevertheless twofold greater in NIDDM (P = .04) and accounted for nearly half of the leg glucose metabolism in NIDDM.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

A reduction in the early insulin response results in a lack of adequate suppression of hepatic glucose production with subsequent post-challenge hyperglycaemia and increased insulin concentrations late in the test.

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.
