12 months therapy with acarbose in 143 type I and type II patients markedly improved the metabolic control, assessed by fasting and postprandial blood glucose determination. During 5 year acarbose treatment GIP levels were decreased and enteroglucagon levels were elevated. After withdrawal of the drug for one week GIP levels increased and enteroglucagon concentrations fell. Thus, GI-hormone cha...

background: the effects of aqueous extract of fadogia agrestis stem at the doses of 18, 36, and 72 mg/kg body weight on alloxan-induced toxicity was investigated in wistar rats. methods: in total, 35 rats of both sexes (132.80±7.22g) were randomized into five groups (a-e): animals in group a received 0.5 ml of distilled water orally on daily basis for 15 days while the alloxanized rats in group...

BACKGROUND Loss and fragmentation of Neotropical primates' habitat can alter the health and individual adaptation. Physiological parameters reflect health status and individuals responses to the habitat conditions. METHODS We captured six wild adult females and six adult males of Alouatta pigra to evaluate their physical condition (body mass, respiratory and heart rate, and rectal temperature...

OBJECTIVE This review is designed to quantitate the effects of obesity and weight gain on risk for coronary heart disease (CHD) and to review the effects of weight loss on CHD risk factors. RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES After a comprehensive review of the literature related to body weight and weight gain on CHD risk, the relative risks (RRs) were tabulated. Values were averaged and meta-ana...
