Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of total vs. visceral fat on insulin action and secretion in African American and white children.
TL;DR: Body fat in general is the predominant factor influencing Si, but VFAT may have additional effects on fasting insulin, and the lack of major effects of VfAT on Si in children may be explained by lower levels of VFatin or because VFat affects aspects of whole body insulin action that are not measured by the minimal model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disposition Index, Glucose Effectiveness, and Conversion to Type 2 Diabetes The Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Study (IRAS)
Carlos Lorenzo,Lynne E. Wagenknecht,Marian Rewers,Andrew J. Karter,Richard N. Bergman,Anthony J. Hanley,Steven M. Haffner +6 more
TL;DR: SG and DI independently predict conversion to diabetes similarly across race/ethnic groups, varying states of glucose tolerance, family history of diabetes, and obesity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Insulin-Like Growth Factor I (IGF-I) Therapy on Body Composition and Insulin Resistance in IGF-I Gene Deletion
Katie A. Woods,Cecilia Camacho-Hübner,Richard N. Bergman,D. Barter,Adrian J. L. Clark,Martin O. Savage +5 more
TL;DR: In this patient with severe insulin resistance, therapy with rhIGF-I resulted in beneficial effects on Si, body composition, bone size, and linear growth, which have implications for IGF-I therapy in a variety insulin resistant states.
Journal ArticleDOI
Minimal Model-Based Insulin Sensitivity Has Greater Heritability and a Different Genetic Basis Than Homeostasis Model Assessment or Fasting Insulin
Richard N. Bergman,Daniel J. Zaccaro,Richard M. Watanabe,Steven M. Haffner,Mohammed F. Saad,Jill M. Norris,Lynne E. Wagenknecht,James E. Hokanson,Jerome I. Rotter,Steven S. Rich +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare sensitivity from the minimal model (insulin sensitivity index [S(I)]) with the measure of insulin resistance emanating from the homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) approach.
