background and aim: the aim of this study was to determine the effect of legume intake in therapeutic lifestyle change (tlc) on fasting insulin, fasting blood glucose, hba1c and homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance (homa-ir) in patients with type 2 diabetes. materials and methods: in this randomized crossover trial, 31 subjects with type 2 diabetes in the age range of 50 to 80 years ...

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOs) is an endocrine-metabolic disorder. This study intends to determine the comparison of insulin resistance (IR) and metabolic disturbance in overweight/obese and normal-weight of young women with polycystic ovary syndrome. Methods: Using a comparative cross-sectional study design in 2015, 27 normal weight (18<bmi Results: 112 women with PCOS participa...

Objective: Fat mass and obesity associated gene (FTO) was identified as a candidate gene contributing to obesity, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aimed to determine the effect of resistance training on FTO expression in subcutaneous fat tissue, insulin resistance and glucose in T2DM rats. Materials and Methods: For this purpose, sixteen obese males wistar rat...

introduction: metabolic syndrome (mets) and impaired lung functions have been associated with an increased risk for coronary heart disease. the aim of this study was to investigate the pulmonary functions in patients with mets. methods: this cross-sectional study included 200 subjects with mets in the study group and 100 subjects without mets in the control group. participants were examined at ...

background and objectives: the prevalence of diabetes mellitus (insulin resistance) in individuals with down's syndrome is more than healthy people, which is possibly because of the high prevalence of obesity among them. adiponectin is one of adipose tissue-secreted adipocytokines, which plays a role in pathogenesis of obesity and insulin resistance. this study was carried out with the aim of d...

objective: some data are available on the association between components of the insulin resistance syndrome and serum ferritin. insulin resistance is observed in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos) we hypothesize that body iron stores might be increased in these women. materials and methods: two hundred and six people (103 pcos patients and 103 healthy women who were matched for age)...
