Objective We measured insulin sensitivity with euglycemic clamp (Si-clamp) in initially
normoglycemic African Americans (AA) and European Americans (EA), to probe the existence of …

Objective Circulating branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs, isoleucine, leucine, valine) and
aromatic amino acids (AAAs, tyrosine and phenylalanine) predicted type 2 diabetes mellitus (…

… HbA1c data from the 2012 National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey that targeted adults
aged >45 years without diagnosed diabetes who had an HbA1c test within 90 days (N = …

Dyslipidemia and dysglycemia are etiologically associated, but the direction, chronology, and
mechanisms of the association are not fully understood. We, therefore, analyzed data from …

… Nkiru Umekwe1, … pre-diabetes prior to initiation of lifestyle intervention: <3 years (n=32;
23.2%), 3–5 years (n=59; 42.8%), or >5 years (n=47; 34%). Table 1 summarizes the changes in …

Objective The hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp (HEC) is the “gold standard” for measuring
insulin sensitivity (Si-clamp). Here, we determined the reproducibility of serial HEC data in …

Aims We assessed blood pressure (BP) and blood glucose (BG) values in healthy subjects,
and examined baseline BP as a predictor of incident prediabetes during follow-up. Methods …

Background The hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp (HEC) is the gold standard for measuring
insulin sensitivity, but glycemic recovery and stabilization after the procedure have not …

Background Endothelial function (EF) reflects the balance between vasodilatory and
vasoconstrictive factors produced by (or acting on) the innermost lining of blood vessels. …

Increased circulating fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-21 and sclerostin levels have been
reported in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). We assessed the association of FGF-21 and …
