Journal ArticleDOI
Macrosomia despite good glycaemic control in Type I diabetic pregnancy; results of a nationwide study in The Netherlands
TL;DR: Third trimester HbA1c was the most powerful predictor, but its predictive capacity was weak, and future research should focus on new more detailed glucose monitoring techniques as well as to alternative factors to reduce macrosomia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impaired fatty acid metabolism in familial combined hyperlipidemia. A mechanism associating hepatic apolipoprotein B overproduction and insulin resistance.
M. Castro Cabezas,T.W.A. de Bruin,H. W. de Valk,Carol C. Shoulders,Hans Jansen,D. Willem Erkelens +5 more
TL;DR: The clustering of risk factors associated with insulin resistance in FCH indicates a common metabolic basis for the FCH phenotype and the syndrome of insulin resistance probably mediated by an impaired fatty acid metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic and vascular determinants of impaired cognitive performance and abnormalities on brain magnetic resonance imaging in patients with type 2 diabetes
S. M. Manschot,Geert Jan Biessels,H. W. de Valk,A. Algra,Guy E.H.M. Rutten,J. van der Grond,L. J. Kappelle +6 more
TL;DR: Type 2 diabetes is associated with modest impairments in cognition, as well as atrophy and vascular lesions on MRI, and chronic hyperglycaemia, hyperinsulinaemia and hypertension may play additional roles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oral magnesium supplementation in insulin-requiring Type 2 diabetic patients.
TL;DR: Three months’ oral Mg supplementation of insulin‐requiring patients with Type 2 DM increased plasma Mg concentration and urinary Mg excretion but had no effect on glycaemic control or plasma lipid concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnesium in diabetes mellitus.
TL;DR: Further study on magnesium (supplementation) is warranted in the prevention of type 2 and of (progression of) retinopathy as well as a means to reduce high blood pressure.
