Recently, several in vitro studies have shown that GPR40 receptor activation by free fatty acids (FFAs) results in glucose-dependent insulin secretion. However, whether GPR40 receptor activation results in glucose-dependent insulin secretion in vivo in rats is not known. Therefore, we evaluated the effect of synthetic GPR40 receptor agonist (compound 1) on glucose tolerance test (GTT) in fed, f...

a study of the relationship between the disorder of glucose metabolism and ischemic heart disease was performed on 122 patients and 100 controls in loghman-dowleh adham’s medical center in tehran. the gtt abnormality was found in only 8% of the control group while for the patients with the heart ischemia the prevalence was 62.3%. prevalence of glucose metabolic disorder among men with acute myo...

The Schwarzschild metric, its Reissner-Nordstrom-de Sitter generalizations to higher dimensions, and some further generalizations all share the feature that gtt grr = −1 in Schwarzschild-like coordinates. In this pedagogical note we trace this feature to the condition that the Ricci tensor (and stress-energy tensor in a solution to Einstein’s equation) has vanishing radial null-null component, ...

a standard breakfast was evaluated as a screening test (bt) for gestational diabetes in a case-control study. blood sugar (bs) was measured 1 hour after a breakfast that had 50gr simple sugar and was designed based on women preferences. in the same women glucose challenge test (gct, 50gr 1hour glucose screening test) was performed one week later in randomized sequential. cutoff values for both ...

BACKGROUND Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a common pregnancy condition. In this study, the risk of having a history of previous GDM (pGDM) on serum homocysteine level was assessed. METHODS Biomedical parameters, serum homocysteine, Insulin, homeostatic model assessment (HOMA) in women with (n = 52) and without pGDM (n = 51) were assessed. According to their current status of Oral Gluc...

PURPOSES To describe the process of gait initiation of pregnant women and to compare the behavior of the pressure center in the three trimesters of pregnancy. METHODS Fifty-seven low-risk pregnant women were evaluated, aged 18 to 35 years, selected for convenience location during the three trimesters of pregnancy. The women were divided into three groups of 19 subjects each, according to gest...

G estational diabetes mellitus (GDM), defined as carbohydrate intolerance of variable degree with onset or first recognition during pregnancy, is the most common medical condition of pregnancy. GDM affects 190,000 (4–5%) of the 4 million births occurring annually in the U.S. and is associated with several maternal and infant complications (1). Worldwide, the three primary screening strategies f...
