... the possible mechanisms (impaired insulin secretion and action, role of the environmental factors) which may lead to the impairment in glucose handling associated with ageing. We also point out that not all aged subjects are glucose intolerant; in fact, it has been suggested that only those aged subjects who...

.... Receiver operator characteristic curves were used to determined sensitivity and specificity for the detection of glucose intolerance as defined by plasma glucose >7.8 mmol/l at 120 min during OGTT. Results: Sensitivity and specificity for this purpose for HbA 1c (>5.1%) were 89 and 17%; for FPG...

Patients were reviewed for the presence of headaches, arthralgias, hypertension, menstrual abnormalities, impotence, glucose intolerance or diabetes. Biochemical evaluation consisted of age...

... abnormalities observed consistently in glucose-intolerant states are impaired suppression of endogenous glucose production, and impaired stimulation of glucose uptake. Among the genetic factors, a polymorphism (Pro12Ala) in the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) γ is associated with a reduced...
