The aim of this study was to evaluate ischemia-modified albumin levels (IMA) in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) cases with and without insulin resistance and the correlation of IMA with carotid intima media thickness, homocysteine, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels. Significantly
Regulation of glucose homeostasis by insulin is modified during aging, but whether this alteration is associated with changes in protein metabolism is less defined. Insulin dose responses of whole body glucose, leucine, and albumin metabolism have been investigated using isotopic dilution of D-[6,
Background: Advanced glycation endproducts elicit inflammation. However, their role in adipocyte macrophage infiltration and in the development of insulin resistance, especially in the absence of the deleterious biochemical pathways that coexist in diabetes mellitus, remains unknown. We investigated
Suppression of postprandial hyperglycemia reduces lipogenic enzyme activities in the adipose tissues of normal rats. The present study investigated the expression of genes related to lipogenesis and insulin sensitivity in mesenteric adipose and epididymal adipose tissues to evaluate the effects of
Increased activity of the sodium transporter, sodium-lithium countertransport (SLC), is reported in hypertensive white patients with evidence of cardiac and renal injury. The purpose of this study was to determine whether increased SLC activity detects risk for nephropathy or vascular disease in
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the relationship between homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-R) and urinary albumin excretion in Japanese and clarify gender difference in albuminuria-related insulin resistance.
METHODS
The subject group consisted of 752 Japanese who had no history of
Microalbuminuria has been reported to precede the development of NIDDM and to be a risk marker for cardiovascular disease. Therefore, the present study investigated the relationship between urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER) and the degree of insulin resistance in Japanese subjects with impaired
Metabolic syndrome, which involves different pathological mechanisms in associated disorders including inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and insulin resistance, results in the development of cardiovascular diseases. The effect of the accumulative abnormalities of metabolic components and the
BACKGROUND
Central blood pressure (cBP) predicts cardiovascular events. Regarding subclinical organ damage, the relationship between urinary albumin excretion (UAE) and cBP is rather unknown.
OBJECTIVE
We aimed to determine whether cBP is related to UAE, and if this relationship is stronger than
Objective Ischemia-mediated oxidative stress and inflammation have been reported to be important contributors to the pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) is a novel marker generated under ischemic and oxidative conditions and may reflect disease activity
Microalbuminuria is a risk factor for renal and cardiovascular disease. A role for insulin resistance in the pathogenesis of microalbuminuria has been suggested but is still unproven. In this case-control, cross-sectional study, we compared glucose disposal rate (GDR), measured by
BACKGROUND
Elevated urinary albumin excretion (UAE) is more frequent in patients with the metabolic syndrome or insulin resistance. Whether UAE predicts the development of diabetes mellitus, independently of the presence or the development of the metabolic syndrome, is unclear, in particular, in
The study was performed to determine the relationship between urinary albumin excretion (UAE) and resistance to insulin-mediated glucose disposal in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Twenty-five non-obese male patients were enrolled; UAE rates were determined on two
OBJECTIVE
Although albumin excretion rates have been related to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in both diabetic and nondiabetic adults, little is known about the relation between albuminuria and either cardiovascular risk factors or the insulin resistance syndrome in adolescents. A normal
Microalbuminuria has recently been associated with insulin resistance in both insulin-dependent and non-insulin-dependent (NIDDM) diabetes mellitus. To establish whether microalbuminuria in non-diabetic subjects as well is associated with insulin resistance and associated abnormalities in glucose
