OBJECTIVE The MiniMed Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS) measures subcutaneous interstitial glucose levels that are calibrated against three or more fingerstick glucose levels daily. The objective of the present study was to examine whether the relationship between plasma and interstitial fluid glucose is altered by changes in plasma glucose and insulin levels and how such alterations ...

background and aims. a high number of patients with periodontitis may have undiagnosed diabetes. it is possible that gingival crevicular blood from routine periodontal probing may be a source of blood for glucose measurements. the aim of this study was to compare gingival crevicular blood and fingerstick blood glucose measurements using a self-monitoring device with the standard laboratory plas...

  Gravid wild kutum broodstock, Rutilus frisii kutum, on their upstream migration to Valiabad River (northern Iran) were kept in captivity to allow them to ovulate (captive ripe). Then the impact of captivity on some reproductive and physiological parameters (i.e., plasma cortisol and glucose levels, fertilization percentage, gonadosomatic index and fecundity) were assessed and results were com...

The aim of this study was to investigate the comparison between some seminal plasma parameters and age of the bull. Concentrations of various biochemical parameters like fructose, glucose, total proteins, albumin and inorganic ions including Na, K and Cl ions of seminal plasma of breeding Sahiwal bulls of different ageswere assessed. Methods: 40Sahiwal bullsdivided into 4 age groups.Semen (2ml ...

neonatal hypoglycemia is common and its prompt ‎management is important to reduce neurological sequelae. to determine the effect of two different glucose concentrations of intravenous (iv) fluid ‎therapy in the incidence of hypoglycemia in sick premature infants, 200 preterm infants ‎weighing 1500-2500 g were selected and randomly assigned into two groups. ‎group 1 received 10% dextrose in wate...

background: in this study, we evaluated the quality of care and control of cardiovascular risk factors in newly diagnosed diabetic patients, identified during diabetes screening program, 1 year after diagnosis. methods: in this prospective study, 83 newly diagnosed diabetic patients identified at screening in isfahan, were studied. height, weight, blood pressure, plasma glucose, lipids, and hem...

background a fall in plasma concentration of energy status related hormones (leptin, insulin-like growth factor-1 (igf-1) and insulin) and body energy expenditure occurs in response to short term fasting. nevertheless, the relations of the fasting-induced changes in energy related hormones and metabolites with fasting energy expenditure (fee) under extended fasting condition have received littl...
