Abstract:β-cell glucose sensitivity (BCGS) improves after gastric bypass (RYGB) in individuals in diabetes (DM2) remission. We sought to assess BCGS (pmol/kg/min/mM) after an oral glucose test (OGT) and an IV graded glucose infusion (GGI) in subjects with and without DM2 remission after RYGB.
Twenty five subjects with DM2 were studied with GGI and 75g-OGT before and 3 months after RYGB. Glucose, insulin, C-peptide, insulin secretion rate, GLP-1 and BCGS were assessed during the OGT and the GGI. Data are … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
