Journal ArticleDOI
Postprandial Blood Glucose Is a Stronger Predictor of Cardiovascular Events Than Fasting Blood Glucose in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Particularly in Women: Lessons from the San Luigi Gonzaga Diabetes Study
Franco Cavalot,Alessio Petrelli,M. Traversa,Katia Bonomo,Elisa Fiora,M Conti,Giovanni Anfossi,Giuseppe Costa,Mariella Trovati +8 more
TL;DR: Postprandial, but not fasting, blood glucose is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular events in type 2 diabetes, with a stronger predictive power in women than in men, suggesting that more attention should be paid to postprandials hyperglycemia, particularly in women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Postprandial Blood Glucose Predicts Cardiovascular Events and All-Cause Mortality in Type 2 Diabetes in a 14-Year Follow-Up Lessons from the San Luigi Gonzaga Diabetes Study
Franco Cavalot,A Pagliarino,Manuela Valle,Leonardo Di Martino,Katia Bonomo,Paola Massucco,Giovanni Anfossi,Mariella Trovati +7 more
TL;DR: In type 2 diabetes, both postprandial blood glucose and A1C predict cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality in a long-term follow-up.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of catecholamines in platelet function: pathophysiological and clinical significance
TL;DR: The modulation of platelet function by the sympathoadrenal system is examined and the role of circulating catecholamines in the control of platelets responses is concentrated on.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insulin Stimulates Nitric Oxide Synthesis in Human Platelets and, Through Nitric Oxide, Increases Platelet Concentrations of Both Guanosine-3′, 5′-Cyclic Monophosphate and Adenosine-3′, 5′-Cyclic Monophosphate
Mariella Trovati,Giovanni Anfossi,Paola Massucco,Luigi Mattiello,Costanzo Costamagna,Valentina Piretto,E. Mularoni,Franco Cavalot,Amalia Bosia,Dario Ghigo +9 more
TL;DR: Insulin increases NO synthesis in human platelets, and, through NO, enhances both cGMP and cAMP in these cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insulin directly reduces platelet sensitivity to aggregating agents. Studies in vitro and in vivo.
Mariella Trovati,Giovanni Anfossi,Franco Cavalot,Paola Massucco,E. Mularoni,Giorgio Emanuelli +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that insulin may have a role in the physiological modulation of platelet function and that the long-term insulin deficiency might account for the enhanced platelet aggregability frequently observed in diabetic patients.
