Limited predictive ability of surrogate indices of insulin sensitivity/resistance in Asian-Indian men.
Insulin resistance is highly prevalent in Asian Indians and contributes to worldwide public health problems, including diabetes and related disorders. Surrogate measurements of insulin sensitivity/resistance are used frequently to study Asian Indians, but these are not formally validated in this population. In this study, we compared the ability of simple surrogate indices to accurately predict...
متن کاملImpaired glucose tolerance alters functional ability of peripheral blood-derived mononuclear cells in Asian Indian men.
AIM To compare the adhesion, migration and endothelial differentiation potential of peripheral blood-derived mononuclear cells (PBMCs) obtained from drug-naive normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) Asian Indian men. METHODS Based on the 75-g oral glucose tolerance test, 30 NGT and 31 IGT subjects were recruited into the study. PBMCs were isolated from fasting blo...

Increased prevalence of insulin resistance and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in Asian-Indian men.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is strongly associated with obesity in most, but not all, ethnic groups, suggesting important ethnic differences in disease susceptibility. Although it is clear that insulin resistance plays a major role in the pathogenesis of T2DM and that insulin resistance is strongly associated with increases in hepatic (HTG) and/or intramyocellular lipid content, little is k...
متن کاملRelationship between generalized and upper body obesity to insulin resistance in Asian Indian men.
It has been proposed that excessive insulin resistance in Asian Indians living in urban areas or migrated to western countries is responsible for the higher incidence of type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease observed in this population. To evaluate whether Asian Indians are more insulin resistant than Caucasians and to define the role of generalized and truncal adiposity, we performed hydr...
