Treatment with a somatostatin analog decreases pancreatic B-cell and whole body sensitivity to glucose.

TL;DR: To determine the specific alteration in B-cell function caused by a somatostatin analog in man and to determine the effect of the induced insulin deficiency on insulin action,Octreotide was administered to nine healthy male subjects to develop mild fasting hyperglycemia, marked fasting hypoinsulinemia, and the development of marked insulin deficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitation of measurement error with Optimal Segments: basis for adaptive time course smoothing

TL;DR: It is suggested that the ability to calculate measurement error and reconstruct the error-free shape of data curves has wide applicability in data analysis and experimental design.

Defining the role of common variation in the genomic and biological architecture of adult human height

Andrew R. Wood, +444 more
TL;DR: The results indicate a genetic architecture for human height that is characterized by a very large but finite number of causal variants, including mTOR, osteoglycin and binding of hyaluronic acid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Repeatability of Insulin Sensitivity and Glucose Effectiveness From the Minimal Model: Implications for Study Design

TL;DR: Power calculations using the observed variances from the full and reduced data sets indicated that the full sample protocol is preferable for small studies designed to detect small changes in Si, whereas the reduced sample Protocol is appropriate for studies with large numbers of subjects or large anticipated changes inSi.
