Repeated measures of serum glucose and insulin in relation to postmenopausal breast cancer.

29 Nov 2009 Experimental and epidemiological evidence suggests that circulating glucose and insulin may play a role in breast carcinogenesis. However, few cohort studies have examined breast cancer risk in association with glucose and insulin levels, and ... Read more...

Mechanisms of impaired glucose tolerance and insulin secretion during isoflurane anesthesia.

30 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Volatile anesthetics impair insulin secretion and glucose utilization; however, the precise mechanism of action that underlies these effects is unknown. The authors hypothesized that isoflurane inhibits glucose-induced inhibition of ... Read more...

A(1c) control in a primary care setting: self-titrating an insulin analog pre-mix (INITIATEplus trial).

30 Oct 2009 PURPOSE: To study glycemic control and hypoglycemia development upon initiation of insulin through a self-titration schedule in a 24-week trial, conducted with 4875 insulin-naïve patients with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes, predominantly in a ... Read more...
