Abstract:Impairment of β-cell function is a precursor to impaired glucose tolerance, which is a pathophysiological basis for the development of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Previous literature has reported varying effects of TRE on metabolic measures in different populations, yet the effect of TRE on β-cell function has not been well-characterized. We hypothesized that in obese patients without diabetes, 12 weeks of TRE (8-hour eating window) would improve β-cell function relative to baseline and the unrestricted e… 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.
