Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c ) and fasting plasma glucose relationships in sea-level and high-altitude settings
(Wiley, 2017)
AIM: Higher haemoglobin levels and differences in glucose metabolism have been reported among high-altitude residents, which may influence the diagnostic performance of HbA1c . This study explores the relationship between ...
Increased levels of serum γ-glutamyltransferase and uric acid on metabolic, hepatic and kidney parameters in subjects at high altitudes
(De Gruyter, 2014)
Background: Currently there are no studies on γ-glutamyltransferase (γGT) levels at high altitude or on the relationship between γGT, uric acid and several dysfunctions. The aim of the study was to determine the association ...
Physiological endocrine control of energy homeostasis and postprandial blood glucose levels
(Verduci Editore, 2005-12)
The aim of this review is to analyze the different components and the feedback mechanisms involved in the normal control of energy homeostasis and postprandial blood glucose levels. Such control involves exogenous and ...
Association between blood glucose levels and autonomic symptoms in Peru
(Elsevier, 2022)
Aims: To determine whether there is an association between high blood glucose levels and having autonomic symptoms among adults aged 30–69 years. Material and methods: A population-based cross-sectional study was conducted. ...
Effect of low-sodium salt substitutes on blood pressure, detected hypertension, stroke and mortality.
(BMJ Publishing Group, 2019)
OBJECTIVE: A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to assess the efficacy of low-sodium salt substitutes (LSSS) as a potential intervention to reduce cardiovascular (CV) diseases. METHODS: Five engines and ...
A1c as a diagnostic criteria for diabetes in low- and middle-income settings: Evidence from PERU
(Public Library of Science, 2011)
Objectives: To determine the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus, in three groups of Peruvian adults, using fasting glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin (A1C). Methodology/Principal Findings: This study included adults ...
Analysis and Design of a Microwave Coplanar Sensor for Non-Invasive Blood Glucose Measurements
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2020-09)
In this paper a design for a microwave sensor for the non-invasive measurement of blood glucose concentrations is proposed. The sensor is intended for usage as part of a non-invasive glucose-quantifying device. With this ...
Effects of diabetes definition on global surveillance of diabetes prevalence and diagnosis: A pooled analysis of 96 population-based studies with 331 288 participants
(Elsevier, 2015)
Background: Diabetes has been defined on the basis of different biomarkers, including fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-h plasma glucose in an oral glucose tolerance test (2hOGTT), and HbA1c. We assessed the effect of different ...
Consumo de bebidas azucaradas, verduras y frutas en sujetos con alteración del metabolismo de la glucosa
(Elsevier, 2021)
Introduction: Little is known about dietary patterns among individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Peru. This study aimed to determine whether there is association between glucose metabolism disorder and ...
Addressing geographical variation in the progression of non-communicable diseases in Peru: The CRONICAS cohort study protocol
(BMJ Publishing Group, 2012)
Background: The rise in non-communicable diseases in developing countries has gained increased attention. Given that around 80% of deaths related to noncommunicable diseases occur in low- and middleincome countries, there ...
