1. A population study of glucose intolerance : with aspects concerning non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and hypertension
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
2. Islet glucose metabolism and insulin release in two animal models of glucose intolerance
Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes is a complex and heterogenous disease resulting from the interaction of defects of both genetic and environmental origin. Abnormalities contributing to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes include impaired [beta]-cell function, peripheral insulin resistance and increased hepatic glucose production. LÄS MER
3. Characterization of Impaired Glucose Tolerance - Insulin Sensitivity, Islet Function and Metabolic Risk Factors
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents a three-year prospective study on metabolic characteristics of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and the regulation of insulin sensitivity versus islet function in relation to changes in glucose tolerance. 108 non-diabetic women aged 57-58 years were randomly selected from a population of women born in 1935 with a high prevalence of IGT.

4. Impaired glucose tolerance in ischemic heart disease
Sammanfattning : Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) and impaired glucose tolerance test (IGT) are well known risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Individuals with IGT, a prediabetic state, are asymptomatic during many years and they often remain undiagnosed until they have developed overt diabetes or cardiovascular complications. LÄS MER
5. Foxf2 and Foxc2, two transcription factors that regulate adipocyte metabolism
Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes is the most common metabolic disorder today and has reached epidemic proportions in many countries. Diet-induced insulin resistance plays a central role in the development of type 2 diabetes. LÄS MER
