The day-to-day variability of insulin sensitivity measured during ogtt in young adult males

Kauffmann Adriana , Carvalho Davide

There are a wide range of tests to measure insulin sensitivity. Alternative techniques for estimating insulin sensitivity include measurements made during the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). We aimed to describe the weekly intraindividual daily variability of measures of insulin sensitivity indexes (HOMA-IR, QUICKI, Matsuda’s insulin sensitivity index (ISIM), Insulinogenic Index, Early C Peptide, Stumvoll’s Insulin Sensitivity Index (ISIS), OGIS_120)...

Interrelationship between fasting evaluation of insulin sensitivity, body composition, physical activity and total energy expenditure in obese males

Kauffmann Adriana , Carvalho Davide

The prevalence of obesity markedly increased in the last 2 decades. This have asserted researchers’ attention to the role of adipose tissue throughout the pathophysiology process of a number of diseases. Fatness, namely abdominal fat, is a risk for insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and cardiovascular disease. Physical activity is recommended as one of treatment options for individuals with T2DM. This study aimed to determine the relationship between in...
