ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objectives: To validate the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) of insulin resistance (IR) as a surrogate to the hyperglycemic clamp to measure IR in both pubertal and postpubertal adolescents, and determine the HOMA-IR cutoff values for detecting IR in both pubertal stages. Subjects and methods: The study sample comprised 80 adolescents of both sexes (aged 10-18 years; 37 pubertal), in which IR was assessed with the HOMA-IR and the hyperglycemic clamp. Results: In the multivariable linear regression analysis, adjusted for sex, age, and waist circumference, the HOMA-IR was independently and negatively associated with the clamp-derived insulin sensitivity index in both pubertal (unstandardized coefficient - B = −0.087, 95% confidence interval [CI] = −0.135 to −0.040) and postpubertal (B = −0.101, 95% CI, −0.145 to −0.058) adolescents. Bland-Altman plots showed agreement between the predicted insulin sensitivity index and measured clamp-derived insulin sensitivity index in both pubertal stages (mean = −0.00 for pubertal and postpubertal); all P > 0.05. The HOMA-IR showed a good discriminatory power for detecting IR with an area under the receiver operator characteristic curve of 0.870 (95% CI, 0.718-0.957) in pubertal and 0.861 (95% CI, 0.721-0.947) in postpubertal adolescents; all P < 0.001. The optimal cutoff values of the HOMA-IR for detecting IR were > 3.22 (sensitivity, 85.7; 95% CI, 57.2-98.2; specificity, 82.6; 95% CI, 61.2-95.0) for pubertal and > 2.91 (sensitivity, 63.6; 95% CI, 30.8-89.1, specificity, 93.7; 95%CI, 79.2-99.2) for postpubertal adolescents. Conclusion: The threshold value of the HOMA-IR for identifying insulin resistance was > 3.22 for pubertal and > 2.91 for postpubertal adolescents.

ABSTRACT

Insulin resistance is one of the major aggravating factors for metabolic disease. There are many methods available for estimation of insulin resistance which range from complex techniques down to simple indices. For all methods of assessing insulin resistance, it is essential that their validity and reliability be established before using them in clinical investigations. The reference techniques of hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp and its alternative,the frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test, are the most reliable methods available for estimating insulin resistance. However, there are many simple methods from which indices can be derived that have been assessed and validated, which include homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) and the quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI). Given the increasing number of simple indices of insulin resistance, it may be difficult for clinicians and researchers to select the most appropriate index for their studies. In planning studies on insulin resistance and selecting a suitable index, a number of important factors need to be considered by investigators, the principle one being the nature of the study to be undertaken.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Estimar o impacto do envelhecimento e do diabetes na sensibilidade à insulina, função da célula beta, adipocitocinas e produção de incretina Métodos: Foram realizados clamps hiperglicêmicos, testes de arginina e testes de refeição padrão em 50 pacientes não obesos para medir a sensibilidade à insulina e secreção de insulina, assim como os níveis plasmáticos do glucagon, GLP-1 e GIP. Os pacientes com diabetes e do grupo controle saudáveis foram divididos nos seguintes grupos: meia idade com diabetes tipo 2 (MI-DM2), idosos com diabetes tipo 2 (I-DM2), meia idade ou idosos com tolerância normal à glicose (MI-TNG, I-TNG). Resultados: A sensibilidade à insulina (SI), determinada pelo modelo de avaliação da homeostase, taxa de infusão de glicose e pela sensibilidade à insulina a glicose oral, foi reduzida no grupo de idosos e nos grupos com DM2, comparados com o grupo de meia idade com tolerância normal à glicose, mas foi similar no grupo MI-DM2 e grupo I-DM2. O índice insulinogênico, a primeira e segunda fase de secreção de insulina e o índice de disposição, com exceção da resposta da insulina à arginina, foram reduzidos com o envelhecimento e nos grupos com DM2. A produção pós-prandial média de glucagon no tempo total de 0 - 180 minutos foram maiores no grupo de DM2 comparado ao grupo de TNG, sendo que na primeira hora da produção de glugagon o grupo de I-DM2 apresentou uma média mais elevado em relação ao grupo de MI-DM2. Embora a produção de GLP-1 tenha sido reduzida no grupo I-DM2, nenhuma diferença entre os grupos foi observada em relação à produção de GIP. Conclusão: O diabetes e o envelhecimento desencadearam uma redução da sensibilidade à insulina em pacientes não obesos. A produção de insulina foi reduzida com o envelhecimento e exacerbada pela condição do diabetes. As deficiências associadas ao envelhecimento se sobrepõe a fisiopatologia do diabetes, particularmente relacionada à produção de GLP-1...


Objective: To estimate the impact of aging and diabetes on insulin sensitivity, beta-cell function, adipocytokines, and incretin production. Methods: Hyperglycemic clamps, arginine tests and meal tolerance tests were performed in 50 non-obese subjects to measure insulin sensitivity (IS) and insulin secretion as well as plasma levels of glucagon, GLP-1 and GIP. Patients with diabetes and healthy control subjects were divided into the following groups: middle-aged type 2 diabetes (MA-DM), elderly Type 2 diabetes (E-DM) and middle-aged or elderly subjects with normal glucose tolerance (MA-NGT or E-NGT). Results: IS (insulin sensitivity), as determined by the homeostasis model assessment glucose infusion rate and oral glucose insulin sensitivity, was reduced in the aged and DM groups compared with MA-NGT, but similar in MA-DM and E-DM groups. Insulinogenic index, first and second phase of insulin secretion and the disposition indices, except insulin response to arginine, were reduced in the elderly and DM groups. The average postprandial glucagon production on the interval of 0-180 min was higher in DM groups compared to NGT groups, furthermore noticed that in the first hour of glucagon secretion, group E-DM had a higher average value compared to group MA-DM. Whereas the GLP-1 production was reduced in A-DM, no differences between groups were observed in GIP production. Conclusions: In non-obese subjects, diabetes and aging impair insulin sensitivity. Insulin production is reduced by aging, and diabetes exacerbates this condition. Aging associated defects superimposed diabetic physiopathology, particularly regarding GLP-1 production. On the other hand, the glucose-independent secretion of insulin was preserved. The knowledge of the complex relationship between aging and diabetes could support the development of physiopathological and pharmacological based therapies.

ABSTRACT

Insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion function are the hot spots for studying the sugar and lipid metabolism. Hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp and hyperglycemic clamp are the gold standard for insulin sensitivity test and insulin secretion function test. Lack of insulin secretion and insulin resistance are the two main pathogenesis of diabetes. Adopting glucose clamp technology to explore diabetes and diabetic complications, and other endocrine diseases has bocome the main method. Recently,this technology has been initially used in childhood diabetes,obesity, short stature syndrome, metabolic syndrome, et al. Hie technology becomes common in children with endocrine diseases.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To assess the relationship between adiponectin and metabolic parameters in severely obese women during surgical-induced weight loss. METHODS: Nineteen lean (CT - BMI:21.2 ± 0.3 kg.m²), 14 overweight/class II obese (OB/OW - BMI: 29.7 ± 0.7 kg/m²) and 8 morbidly obese (OBIII - BMI: 56.4 ± 3.6 kg/m²) were evaluated by hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp, adiponectin, and lipids. OBIII were evaluated at 5th and 16th month post-operatively. RESULTS: Compared to lean, obese groups had lower adiponectin (OB/OW: 9.4 ± 0.9, OBIII: 7.1 ± 1.3 versus 12.2 ± 0.9 ng/dL; p < 0.01), lower HDL-cholesterol (OB/OW:1.05 ± 0.05, OBIII: 0.88 ± 0.04 versus 1.22 ± 0.07 mmol/L; p < 0.01) and insulin resistance-IR (glucose uptake, M-value - OB/OW: 43.6 ± 2.7, OBIII: 32.4 ± 3.2 versus 20.0 ± 1.8 umol/kgFFM.min; p < 0.001). Considering all subjects, adiponectin levels were inversely correlated to BMI and waist circumference, and directly to M-value and HDL-cholesterol (p < 0.01). During weight loss, improvements in IR (Study III: 36.1 ± 3.9 umol/kg/FFM.min, p < 0.0001), adiponectin (11.8 ± 1.4 ng/dL, p = 0.006) and HDL-cholesterol were observed (1.10 ± 0.04 mmol/L, p = 0.007). Moreover, HDL-cholesterol improvement was significantly and independently related to variations of adiponectin and BMI (r² = 0.86; p < 0.0002). CONCLUSIONS: The improvements of IR and adiponectin were related to surgical-induced weight loss, suggesting an important role of adiponectin in HDL-cholesterol regulation.


OBJETIVO: Identificar a relação entre adiponectina e parâmetros metabólicos em mulheres obesas mórbidas durante o emagrecimento por bypass gástrico. MÉTODOS: Dezenove magras (CT - IMC: 21,2 ± 0,3 kg/m²), 14 com sobrepeso/obesidade classe II (OB/OW - IMC: 29,7 ± 0,7 kg/m²) e oito obesas classe III (OBIII - IMC:56,4 ± 3,6 kg/m²) foram avaliadas pelo clamp euglicêmico-hiperinsulinêmico, adiponectina e lípides. OBIII submeteram-se aos mesmos testes no quinto e décimo-sexto mês pós-operatório. RESULTADOS: comparados a CT, os grupos obesos tiveram menor adiponectinemia (OB/OW: 9,4 ± 0,9, OBIII: 7,1 ± 1,3 versus 12,2 ± 0,9 ng/dL; p < 0,01), menor HDL-colesterol (OB/OW: 1,05 ± 0,05, OBIII: 0,88 ± 0,04 versus 1,22 ± 0,07 mmol/L; p < 0,01) e resistência insulínica - RI (captação de glicose, M - OB/OW:43,6 ± 2,7, OBIII:32,4 ± 3,2 versus 20,0 ± 1,8 umol/kgFFM.min; p < 0,001). Analisando todos os voluntários: adiponectina correlacionou-se negativamente com IMC, circunferência da cintura e positivamente ao M-clamp e HDL-colesterol (p < 0,01). No emagrecimento, houve melhora da RI (Estudo III:36,1 ± 3,9 umol/kgFFM.min, p < 0,0001), adiponectina (11,8 ± 1,4 ng/dL, p = 0,006) e HDL-colesterol (1,10 ± 0,04 mmol/L, p = 0,007). Aumentos do HDL-colesterol foram significativa e independentemente relacionados às variações da adiponectina e IMC (r² = 0,86; p < 0,0002). CONCLUSÕES: A melhora da RI e adiponectina no emagrecimento induzido por bypass gástrico sugerem um importante papel da adiponectina na regulação do HDL-colesterol.

ABSTRACT

The plasma ghrelin has been reported to be elevated in Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) and modulated by insulin. It was hypothesized that insulin might have a more pronounced effect on reducing plasma ghrelin in PWS patients, which would influence appetite. This study investigated the degree of ghrelin suppression using an euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp in children with PWS (n=6) and normal children (n=6). After a 90-min infusion of insulin, the plasma ghrelin level decreased from a basal value of 0.86+/-0.15 to 0.58+/-0.12 ng/mL in the controls, and from 2.38+/-0.76 to 1.12+/-0.29 ng/mL in children with PWS (p=0.011). The area under the curve below the baseline level over the 90 min insulin infusion was larger in children with PWS than in controls (-92.82+/-44.4 vs. -10.41+/-2.87 ng/mL/90 min) (p=0.011). The insulin sensitivity measured as the glucose infusion rate at steady state was similar in the two groups (p=0.088). The decrease in the ghrelin levels in response to insulin was more pronounced in the children with PWS than in the controls. However, the level of ghrelin was always higher in the children with PWS during the clamp study. This suggests that even though insulin sensitivity to ghrelin is well maintained, an increase in the baseline ghrelin levels is characteristic of PWS.

ABSTRACT

The purpose of the present study was to determine whether chronic high-fat diet (HF) induces insulin resistance independently of obesity. We randomly divided 40 rats into two groups and fed them either with a HF or with a high-carbohydrate diet (HC) for 8 weeks. Whole body glucose disappearance rate (Rd) was measured using a euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp. Firstly, we defined whether insulin resistance by HF was associated with obesity. Plasma glucose and triglyceride concentrations were significantly increased in HF. Rd was decreased (10.6+/-0.2 vs. 9.1+/-0.2 mg/kg/min in HC and HF, respectively) and the hepatic glucose output rate (HGO) was increased in HF (2.2+/-0.3 vs. 4.5+/-0.2 mg/kg/min in HC and HF, respectively). Rd was significantly correlated with %VF (p<0.01). These results implicate that visceral obesity is associated with insulin resistance induced by HF. In addition, to define whether dietary fat induces insulin resistance regardless of visceral obesity, we compared Rd and HGO between groups 1) after matching %VF in both groups and 2) using an ANCOVA to adjust for %VF. After matching %VF, Rd in HF was significantly decreased by 14% (p<0.001) and HGO was significantly increased by 110% (p<0.001). Furthermore, statistical analyses using an ANCOVA also showed Rd for HF was significantly decreased even after adjusting %VF. In conclusion, we suggest that dietary fat per se could induce insulin resistance in rats fed with chronic HF independently of obesity.

ABSTRACT

Objective To establish an extended hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp for the study of insulin sensitivity in Chinese. Methods Combining glucose clamp, 3 3H labelled glucose tracer technique and indirect calorimetry, an extended hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp technique was applied into the study of methodology in 9 normal weight subjects with normal glucose tolerance. Results (1) When a higher level of insulin was created during maintaining euglycemia, hepatic glucose production was completely inhibited, and the counter regulatory hormones (including cortisol, growth hormone and glucagon) and endogenous insulin secretion were not significantly stimulated. (2) During the steady state of the extended hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp, the insulin mediated glucose disappearance rate was significantly increased compared with basal state 〔(5.86?0.65)mg?kg -1 ?min -1 vs (2.45?0.15)mg?kg -1 ?min -1 , P

ABSTRACT

Objective Hyperglycemic clamp technique (HGCT) was performed to evaluate the effect of short-term intensive insulin therapy on the first and second-phase (1PH and 2PH) insulin secretion and maximum insulin secretion (MIS) in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetics. Methods Twelve volunteers with normal glucose tolerance (NC group) and six newly diagnosed type 2 diabetics (DM group) were included and HGCT was performed to assess the function of pancreatic islet beta cell. Then HGCT was repeated in the 6 patients following two week intensive insulin therapy. Results The levels of secreted insulin in 1PH, 2PH and MIS were 257?36 mU/L, 63?5 mU/L and 80?5 mU/L in NC group respectively, and 95?19 mU/L, 34?9 mU/L and 39?12 mU/L in DM group respectively. 1PH insulin secretion was significantly improved in the diabetics following 2 week treatment compared with that before the treatment (135?27 mU/L vs 95?19 mU/L, P=0.01). The insulin secretions in 2PH and MIS were slightly increased (40?9 mU/L vs 34?9 mU/L, P=0.09, 46?11 mU/L vs 39?12 mU/L,P=0.08, respectively). Conclusions Short-term intensive insulin therapy can improve the insulin secretions significantly in 1PH and slightly in 2PH and MIS in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetics.
