Chronic hyperglycemia is associated with impaired glucose influence on insulin secretion. A study in normal rats using chronic in vivo glucose infusions.

TL;DR: Data clearly show that after 48 h of marked hyperglycemia, glucose influence upon insulin secretion in the rat is severely impaired, and this model provides a relatively easy and reproducible method to study the effects of long-term hyper glycemia on B cell function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of five antihypertensive monotherapies and placebo for change in left ventricular mass in patients receiving nutritional-hygienic therapy in the Treatment of Mild Hypertension Study (TOMHS).

TL;DR: NH intervention with emphasis on weight loss and reduction of dietary sodium is as effective as NH intervention plus pharmacological treatment in reducing echocardiographically determined LVM, despite a smaller decrease in blood pressure in the NH intervention only group.
Journal ArticleDOI

Splanchnic and peripheral glucose and amino acid metabolism in diabetes mellitus

TL;DR: In nonketotic diabetics total splanchnic output of glucose is comparable to controls, but the relative contribution of gluconeogenesis may be increased by more than 50%, and the failure of glucose infusion to inhibit hepatic glucose output suggests that the exquisite sensitivity of the liver to the infusion of glucose in normal man is a consequence of glucose-induced insulin secretion.

Uraemic bleeding: role of anaemia and beneficial effect of red cell transfusions

TL;DR: Bleeding time, altered in most uraemic patients, may be influenced by packed cell volume (PCV), and the platelet-mediated haemorrhagic tendency in uraemia may be successfully managed by raising PCV values to above 30%.
