Sex-related differences between adiponectin and insulin resistance in schoolchildren.
OBJECTIVE To study the effect of body composition and adiponectin on insulin resistance and beta-cell function in schoolchildren during puberty. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Plasma adiponectin level and its relationships with insulin sensitivity and beta-cell function were analyzed in 500 randomly recruited nondiabetic Taiwanese schoolchildren (245 boys and 255 girls) aged 6-18 years in a nati...
متن کاملSex steroids and insulin resistance.
There is extensive experimental evidence that sex steroids and insulin interact in their actions on tissues. At physiological levels, testosterone and oestradiol are thought to be involved in maintaining normal insulin sensitivity. However, outside this 'physiological window' these steroids may promote insulin resistance. Considerable research has been carried out on polycystic ovarian syndrome...

متن کاملSex Differences in the Association between Level of Childhood Interleukin-6 and Insulin Resistance in Adolescence
The purpose of this study was to determine whether levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in childhood are related to insulin resistance in adolescence. Further, to explore how fatness and cardiorespiratory fitness (VO(2peak)) moderate this relationship. Methods. 292 nine-year-old children (n = 292) were followed for 4 years. Anthropometrics and VO(2peak) were measured. Fasting blood samples were analy...
متن کاملSex differences in the association between dietary restraint, insulin resistance and obesity.
BACKGROUND & AIMS Restrained food consumption may alter metabolic function and contribute to eventual weight gain; however, sex differences in these relationships have not been assessed. The objective of this study was to examine the relationship between restrained eating and insulin resistance and the influence of body mass index and sex on this relationship in a large community sample of both...
