Effects of protein malnutrition on glucose tolerance in rats with alloxan-induced diabetes
(1995-01-01)
Protein-calorie malnutrition produces glucose intolerance and reduced insulin release in response to glucose. Rats adapted to low- or high-protein diets show an increased resistance to the diabetogenic action of a single ...
An assessment of a sequence of yoga exercises to patients with arterial hypertension
(2013-01-01)
This quasi-experimental study describes the effects of a yoga sequence following hemodynamic and biochemical parameters in patients with hypertension. Thirty-three volunteers participated in the study (control = 16 and ...
Blood galactose and glucose levels in mothers, cord blood, and 48-hour-old breast-fed full-term infants
(Karger, 2007-01-01)
Background: Although galactose is an important component in human lactose, there are few reports of its role in the newborn metabolism. Objective: To determine the relationship of blood galactose and glucose levels in ...
Insulin secretion in monosodium glutamate (MSG) obese rats submitted to aerobic exercise training
(2003-12-01)
The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of aerobic exercise training on glucose tolerance and insulin secretion of obese male Wistar rats (monosodium glutamate [MSG] administration, 4mg/g-body weight, each ...

(2013-09-01)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of yacon (Smallanthus sonchifolius) (Poepp.& Endl.) on clinical parameters under diabetic conditions. The aqueous extract of yacon tuberous roots (YRAE; 0.76gfructankg-1 ...
Resting heart rate: Its correlations and potential for screening metabolic dysfunctions in adolescents
(2013-04-05)
Background: In pediatric populations, the use of resting heart rate as a health index remains unclear, mainly in epidemiological settings. The aims of this study were to analyze the impact of resting heart rate on screening ...
Independent impact of glycemia ad blood pressure in albuminuria on high-risk subjects for metabolic syndrome
(2004-06-01)
Background: Microalbuminuria may reflect diffuse endothelial damage. Considering that diabetes and hypertension cause vasculopathy, we investigated associations of albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) with plasma glucose and ...
Toxicologic evaluation of acute and subacute oral administration of Cucurbita maxima seed extracts to rats and swine
(1994-07-04)
The extract prepared from dried seeds of Cucurbita maxima was administered to rats and pigs. Following a single dose or 4 weeks of daily oral administration, the extract produced no changes in serum glucose, urea, creatinine, ...
Exercise training in the aerobic/anaerobic metabolic transition prevents glucose intolerance in alloxan-treated rats
(2008-10-02)
Background: Ninety percent of cases of diabetes are of the slowly evolving non-insulin-dependent type, or Type 2 diabetes. Lack of exercise is regarded as one of the main causes of this disorder. In this study we analyzed ...
