13. Prevalence of diabetes mellitus and impaired glucose tolerance in patients with decompensated cirrhosis being evaluated for liver transplantation: the utility of oral glucose tolerance test
CONTEXTO: Cirrose, diabetes mellitus, intolerância à glicose e resistência insulínica é uma associação que vem sendo discutida, bem como a desnutrição nesta população, pelo risco de pior evolução de hepatopatia. OBJETIVO: Determinar a prevalência de diabetes mellitus, intolerância à glicose e resistência insulínica e desnutrição protéico

14. Associação da demência com intolerância à glicose e diabetes mellitus em função da presença ou não da resistência insulínica e marcadores inflamatórios em idosos / Association of dementia with impaired glucose tolerance and diabetes mellitus in fuction of insulin resistance and inflammatory markers in the elderly
Introduction: Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) and dementia are highly prevalent diseases among the elderly population. Studies have been evincing that type 2 diabetes are associated with cognitive impairment and also shows a high risk for vascular dementia and for Alzheimers disease. Studies suggest that elderly people with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) present cog

15. Coronary heart disease in women: a challenge for the 21st century
Heart disease is the first killer of women in the modern era, regardless of age, race and of ethnicity, although its prevalence rises after menopause. Modern women have professional and housewife responsibilities, consume excess of fat and carbohydrates, smoke, do not exercise regularly and do not have enough time to rest. This situation leads to overweight,

16. Prevalência de Diabetes Mellitus e Tolerância à Glicose Diminuída na população urbana de 30 a 79 anos da cidade de São Carlos (São Paulo)
Objective: To assess the prevalence of diabetes (DM) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) in the urban population aged 30-79 years of the city of São Carlos (SP), Brazil. Methods: It was performed a cross-sectional population survey, from August 2007 to June 2008. Subjects were first screened by fasting capillary glucose. Non diabetic individuals were admin

17. Modulação do mecanismo de sedreção de insulina em ilhotas pancreaticas de ratos submetidos a restrição protetica e suplementados com taurina / Insulin secretion mechanisms in pancreatic islets of protein-restricted rats supplemented with taurine
Malnutrition still is a public health issue, especially in developing countries. Many studies correlate malnourishment during early life and the development of cardiovascular disease and type 2 Diabetes Mellitus on latter stages. Animal models of malnutrition reveal impaired insulin secretion stimulated by glucose and other insulinotropic agents as well as l

18. Prevalência do diabetes mellitus e tolerância diminuída à glicose na população indígena, entre 18 e 69 anos de idade, da aldeia Jaguapiru, Dourados - MS, Brasil
Avaliou-se a prevalência de diabetes mellitus e tolerância diminuída à glicose nos indígenas com idade entre 18 e 69 anos, da aldeia Jaguapiru, Dourados, MS. Estudou-se uma amostra aleatória de 606 indígenas, 268 homens e 338 mulheres. Os dados foram coletados por meio do formulário, do exame clínico, da dosagem da glicemia capilar e do teste oral d

19. Effects ot genetic hypercholesterolemia on the glycemic homeostasis and insulin secretion in LDL recptor knockout mice ( LDLR POT. -/- ) / Efeito da hipercolesterolemia genetica sobre a homeostase glicemica e secreção de insulina em camundongos knockout para o recptor de LDL ( LDLR POT. -/- )
In this work, we investigated whether primary hyperlipidemia per se, independently of a high-fat diet, affects glycemia and insulin secretion stimulated by several secretagogues in hypercholesterolemic low-density lipoprotein receptor knockout mice (LDLR-/-). In addition, we investigated the possible mechanisms involved in the release of this hormone. We fou

20. Adiponectina, TNF- alfa e IL-6 em pacientes portadores de obesidade grave : relação com a sensibilidade a insulina e com a tolerancia a glicose / Adiponectin, TNF- alfa and IL-6 in severe patients : relation to insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance
Obesity is associated with a cluster of metabolic alterations such as insulin resistance, hypertension, and dyslipidemia and with a low-grade systemic inflammation, which is presumed to play a role in the development of insulin resistance, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Adipocytokines or adipokines are synthesized by adipose

21. Are the beneficial cardiovascular effects of simvastatin and metformin also associated with a hormone-dependent mechanism improving insulin sensitivity?
In addition to lipid-lowering and cardiovascular protective actions, statins may have beneficial effects on insulin sensitivity. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of simvastatin therapy on insulin resistance and on leptin, adiponectin, and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, as compared to metformin, in overweight pre-diabetic subjec

22. Association of acanthosis nigricans with race and metabolic disturbances in obese women
Acanthosis nigricans (AN) has been recognized as a marker of insulin resistance and diabetes mellitus. We have compared frequency of race and metabolic disturbances in obese women with several degrees of AN (AN group, N = 190) to a group without AN (non-AN group, N = 61) from a mixed racial population. The groups were similar regarding age and body mass inde

23. Avaliação das modificações metabolicas durante e apos o emagrecimento em pacientes portadores de obesidade classe III, submetidos a cirurgia de gastroplastia vertical com bandagem e derivação gastro-jejunal
Obesity has a high prevalence and an increasing incidence, being considered epidemic. It is characterized by hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance, important early metabolic changes in the obese patient. The first has been reported as an independent cardiovascular risk factor. The mechanisms underlying hyperinsulinemia are not clear and it has been associa

24. Risk factors for glucose intolerance in active acromegaly
In the present retrospective study we determined the frequency of glucose intolerance in active untreated acromegaly, and searched for risk factors possibly supporting the emergence of the diabetic condition. Among 43 patients, 8 (19%; 95% CI: 8-33%) had diabetes mellitus and 2 (5%; 1-16%) impaired glucose tolerance. No impaired fasting glycemia was demonstr
