    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is on the rise globally, affecting disadvantaged populations to a higher extent. Both T2D and prediabetes are often undiagnosed. Early detection of T2D and prediabetes is of importance to avoid complications due to metabolic disturbances caused by elevated glucose values. LÄS MER

    Författare :Jiaojiao Zheng; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Diabetes may increase the risk and mortality of certain cancers, but its association with gastric adenocarcinoma is not clear. On the other hand, metformin, a first-line treatment for diabetes, may reduce cancer risks and improve cancer-related survival, but these associations have not been confirmed in gastric adenocarcinoma as well.

  7. 20. Insulin resistance in children and adolescents : mechanisms and clinical effects

    Författare :Anna E Ek; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Insulin resistance is a condition in which insulin does not achieve appropriate response in different target tissues, it is associated with obesity and one of the main culprits in the development of type 2 diabetes. An early sign of disturbed glucose-insulin homeostasis is impaired fasting glucose (IFG) where glucose is elevated in the fasting state. LÄS MER
