Caffeine increases ambulatory glucose and postprandial responses in coffee drinkers with type 2 diabetes
Abstract
R ecent laboratory studies demon-strated that caffeine exaggeratesglucose and insulin responses to standardized carbohydrate loads in habit-ual coffee drinkers who have type 2 dia-betes (1–3). Similar postprandial effects in everyday life could disrupt clinical ef-forts to maintain glucose control in pa-tients with type 2 diabetes. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of a mod-erate dose of caffeine on glucose levels and postprandial glucose responses in free-living coffee drinkers with type 2 di-abetes. We specifically predicted that caf-feine administration would increase glucose concentrations during the day and exaggerate the glucose increases that followed meals when habitual coffee drinkers with type 2 diabetes were mon-itored during everyday life.

In elderly participants, training significantly reduced inflammatory markers without changes in BMI or body fat.
“Several training interventions have not produced changes in basal IL-6 or CRP concentrations (213 -218) , while significant reductions in inflammatory markers have been observed following training without changes in BMI or body fat in elderly participants (219,220) .”

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.
