Abstract Poor post-prandial glucose control is a risk factor for multiple health conditions. The second-meal effect refers to the progressively improved glycaemic control with repeated feedings, an effect which is achievable with protein ingestion at the initial eating occasion. The most pronounced glycaemic response each day therefore typically occurs following breakfast, so the present study investigated whether ingesting protein during the night could improve glucose control at the first meal of the day. In a randomised crossover design, fifteen adults (seven males, eight females; age, 22 (sd 3) years; BMI, 24·0 (sd 2·8) kg/m2; fasting blood glucose, 4·9 (sd 0·5) mmol/l) woke at 04.00 (sd 1) hours to ingest 300 ml water with or without 63 g whey protein. Participants then completed a mixed-macronutrient meal tolerance test (1 g carbohydrate/kg body mass, 2356 (sd 435) kJ), 5 h 39 min following the nocturnal feeding. Nocturnal protein ingestion increased the glycaemic response (incremental AUC) to breakfast by 43·5 (sd 55·5) mmol × 120 min/l (P = 0·009, d = 0·94). Consistent with this effect, individual peak blood glucose concentrations were 0·6 (sd 1·0) mmol/l higher following breakfast when protein had been ingested (P = 0·049, d = 0·50). Immediately prior to breakfast, rates of lipid oxidation were 0·02 (sd 0·03) g/min higher (P = 0·045) in the protein condition, followed by an elevated post-prandial energy expenditure (0·38 (sd 0·50) kJ/min, P = 0·018). Post-prandial appetite and energy intake were similar between conditions. The present study reveals a paradoxical second-meal phenomenon whereby nocturnal whey protein feeding impaired subsequent glucose tolerance, whilst increasing post-prandial energy expenditure.

Introduction: Gestational diabetes mellitus is common disorder in pregnancy. It is associated with adverse pregnancy outcome. There is no consensus regarding the optimal approach to screening of gestational diabetes mellitus. The present study has tried toobserve the value of fasting blood glucose in screening of gestational diabetes. Objective: To determine the frequency of patients in whomfasting blood glucose and 100gm glucose tolerance show agreement for screening of gestational diabetes mellitus at 24 -28 wks. Studydesign: Comparative cross sectional study. Settings: The study was conducted at Gynecology and Obstetrics department Shaikh ZayedFederal Post Graduate Institute Lahore. Duration of study with dates: 6 months from 12Nov 2010 to 11 May 2011. Material and method: Thestudy included 135 booked patients with positive family history of diabetes mellitus. All patients underwent fasting blood glucose at 24-28 weeksof gestation, regardless of results of fasting blood glucose on next visit they underwent 100g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). The agreementbetween fasting blood glucose and 100g oral glucose tolerance test was calculated in frequency and percentages. Results: The mean age ofwomen in studied population was 27.15±3.70.Out of 135 patients 86.7 %( 117) showed agreement between results of fasting blood glucose and100g OGTT while 13.31 %( 18) showed no agreement between both of the tests. Conclusions: Fasting blood glucose is a good screeningoption for gestational diabetes mellitus along with positive history. It provides a simple, cheap and more practical test for screening of gestationaldiabetes mellitus. However diagnostic confirmation with 100g OGTT should be done.

Some lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are observed to be potential probiotics with functional properties such as lowering fasting blood glucose (FBG), as a promising hyperglycemia management. This study investigated the ability and mechanism of Lactobacillus rhamnosus BSL and Lactobacillus rhamnosus R23 on lowering FBG in diabetic rats induced by streptozotocin (STZ). The rats were orally administered with L. rhamnosus BSL and L. rhamnosus R23 by giving 1 mL cell suspension (109 CFU/mL) daily for 30 days. The body weight (BW) was recorded once in three days, and FBG was recorded once in six days. An oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was measured 1 week after injection with STZ and before sacrifice. Fecal samples were collected on days 0, 15, and 30 for LAB population and identification, performed by PCR detecting 16S rRNA. Oral administration of L. rhamnosus BSL and L. rhamnosus R23 decreased FBG and improved glucose tolerance via downregulation of glucose-6-phosphatase (G6pc) expression by 0.57- and 0.60-fold change, respectively (P<0.05). The lipid profiles, BUN, creatinine, SGOT, and SGPT were significantly (P<0.05) different between normal and diabetic rats, but they were not significantly (P>0.05) different among diabetic rats. Both strains were effective in increasing fecal LAB population. Molecular identification of the isolated LAB from fecal sample indicated that they were able to survive and pass through the digestive tract. These results suggested that both strains have the ability to manage blood glucose level and become a promising agent to manage hyperglycemia and diabetes.

Abstract Aims: Type 1 diabetes mellitus is associated with increased fracture risk, whereas the risk associated with type 2 diabetes is less obvious. Elevated fasting blood glucose and high 2-h glucose during an oral glucose tolerance test indicate impaired glucose tolerance or diabetes. The associations among fasting blood glucose, 2-h glucose, and the risk of fracture were investigated. Methods: The Malmö Preventive Project consists of 22,444 men (44 ± 6.6 yr) and 10,902 women (50 ±7.4 yr), with a follow-up of 19 yr (±3.9) and 15 yr (±4.5) for incident fractures. Baseline assessment included multiple examinations and lifestyle information. A logistic regression model was used. Adjustments were made for age, body mass index (BMI), and smoking. Results: Low-energy fractures were recorded in 1246 men and 1236 women. A 2-h glucose measurement between 4.3 and 6.2 mmol/liter in men (second and third quartile), and above 6.5 mmol/liter in women (third and fourth quartile), adjusted for age, BMI, and smoking, was significantly associated with a decreased risk of multiple fractures, in men [odds ratios (ORs) 0.57–0.71] and women (ORs 0.38–0.66). In women, a 2-h glucose measurement above 7.5 mmol/liter was associated with a decreased risk of osteoporotic fractures (OR 0.57, 95% confidence interval 0.44–0.74). Conclusions: In middle-aged men and women, elevated 2-h glucose levels were associated with decreased risks of multiple and osteoporotic fractures, independent of age, BMI, and smoking. A high 2-h glucose level is characterized by peripheral insulin resistance with a high insulin level. Our findings indirectly suggest a positive effect on bone from hyperglycemia.

Background: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is the most commonly prevalent endocrinopathy of reproductive age women. It is a significant public health issue with reproductive, metabolic and psychological features. Because patients with PCOS are at high risk for developing glucose abnormalities, the early identification of affected patients and institution of life style changes or pharmacological treatment may help reduce the long-term risks associated with PCOS. This study was done to assess the prevalence of glucose abnormalities and to evaluate the efficacy of Fasting blood glucose (FBG) in detecting glucose abnormalities when compared to 2 hrs oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT).Methods: Hospital based cross sectional study carried out in 300 women diagnosed as PCOS according to Rotterdam criteria. In patients diagnosed as PCOS, Fasting Blood Glucose and OGTT were done. OGTT taken as an accurate test and FBG values compared with OGTT values to evaluate the efficacy of FBG. Prevalence of glucose abnormalities and association with age, BMI and clinical features was evaluated.Results: Glucose abnormalities were detected in 69 (23%) women with 2 hours OGTT, but with FBG only in 49 (16.33%) women, around one third of women were missed. Sensitivity of FBG was 71.01% (95% CI 58.84% to 81.31%). Mean age of women with abnormal OGTT (27.99) was significantly higher than the women with normal OGTT (24.7). Mean BMI of women with abnormal OGTT (27.42) was significantly higher than the Mean BMI of women with normal OGTT (23.36).Conclusions: Sensitivity of FBG was low in detecting glucose abnormalities. Increasing age, increase in a BMI, menstrual abnormalities, hirsutism/acne and family history of diabetes appear to have positive linear correlation with prevalence of glucose abnormalities.

ABSTRACT. The procedure for diagnosing diabetes mellitus when accompanied by classical symptoms is based on random blood glucose levels of 7 mmol/l or more. Problem of diagnosing diabetes in the asymptomatic subject remains difficult. A procedure based on fasting blood glucose levels below 5.5 mmol/l in normals and reproducible values at or above 7 mmol/l in diabetics is proposed. In cases with fasting blood glucose values between 5.5 and 7 mmol/l standardized oral glucose tolerance test is recommended. The diagnostic criteria for normality, impaired glucose tolerance and for diabetes are evaluated against the results of a 10–14 years prospective study.

In this study, we evaluated antihyperglycemic effects of American ginseng berry extract in diabetic ob/ob mice. Animals received daily intraperitoneal (IP) injections of the extract 150 mg/kg for 12 days. On days 5 and 12, the extract-treated ob/ob mice had significantly lower fasting blood glucose levels compared to day 0 (both p < 0.05). Glucose tolerance improved significantly, which was shown by overall glucose excursion, calculated as area under the curve (AUC) during the two-hour IP glucose tolerance test. The AUC decreased by 31.8% on day 12 compared to day 0 (p < 0.01). In addition, after 12 days of the berry extract treatment, a significant reduction in body weight (p < 0.01 compared to day 0) and a significant increase in body temperature (p < 0.01 compared to day 0) was noticeable. Our results support in vivo antihyperglycemic and antiobese activity of American ginseng berry extract that may prove to be of clinical importance in the prevention and treatment of Type 2 diabetes.

1. The seasonal variation of fasting blood glucose, peroral glucose tolerance, fasting plasma insulin and triglycerides and the sum of insulin values during glucose tolerance test was studied in 100 patients who had suffered a myocardial infarction. These patients comprised a population of all men who had suffered a myocardial infarction below the age of 55 years and had survived. 2. The material was divided into four numerically equal groups covering two dark, cold periods and two warm, light periods of the year. 3. Lower fasting blood glucose and insulin values during glucose tolerance test as well as a trend to higher glucose tolerance were found during the warm, light part of the year in comparison with winter. Triglycerides and fasting insulin values did not vary significantly in these infarction patients. The variation could not be explained by a difference in age or body weight between the groups. 4. It is suggested that glucose tolerance and insulin secretion are subjected to seasonal variation in man as has previously been shown in laboratory animals.

AbstractIn the last years there is an increasing interest towards the bone as an endocrine organ and the role of bone and calcium-phosphate metabolism markers in a range of metabolic disturbances. The aim of the present study is to assess the changes of calcium phosphate metabolism markers in patients with prediabetes compared to normogycemic controls and their link to glucose disturbances and cardiovascular risk factors. In this study, 80 patients with mean age 50.4±10.6 years were included, divided into 2 age- and BMI-matched groups – group 1 with obesity without glycemic disturbances (n=41) and group 2 with obesity and prediabetes (n=39). Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) with measurement of immunoreactive insulin was performed in all participants and levels of PTH, 25(OH)D, FGF23, and Klotho were measured. We found significantly higher levels of FGF23 in patients with prediabetes compared to normal glucose tolerance subjects (10.4±10.7 vs. 5.8±7.3 pg/ml; p=0.03). FGF23 showed a weak positive correlation to fasting blood glucose (r=0.224; p=0.048) but not to blood glucose on the first and second hour of oral glucose tolerance test or insulin levels. There was extremely high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in both groups. Lower levels of 25(OH)D were observed in prediabetes group, although without statistical significance (p=0.57). Patients with prediabetes have higher FGF23 levels and higher prevalence of vitamin D deficiency compared to normal glucose tolerance subjects. Elevated FGF23 levels seem to be correlated more to elevated fasting blood glucose levels than to insulin resistance state of the patients.
