Dietary self-selection in diabetic rats: an overview

Bellush, Linda L., Rowland, Neil E.·1986·Brain Research Bulletin

Abstract

The literature concerning dietary self-selection patterns of diabetic rats is reviewed and compared with new data. There is agreement among the various investigators as to the dietary choices observed following induction of diabetes, regardless of the diabetogenic treatment used. That is, moderately diabetic rats select a high fat, low carbohydrate diet, whereas more severely diabetic animals consume high protein, low carbohydrate diets with little change in fat consumption relative to nondiabetic controls. Even very midly diabetic rats reduce carbohydrate intake. Evaluation of metabolic status of diabetics suggests that with severe diabetes, the beneficial reduction of plasma glucose seen with consumption of a high fat diet may be offset by extreme elevations in ketone and triglyceride levels. Moreover, the hypothesis that diabetic rats are insensitive to carbohydrate calories seems weakened by evidence of reduced food intake following carbohydrate consumption either in solutions or as a gastric load. These findings are discussed in terms of "dietary wisdom" as first proposed by Richter.

Claims other papers make about this one

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

  • Animals tend to avoid carbohydrates when carbohydrate metabolism is defective or altered, particularly during states of diabetes.

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.
