The objective was to explore the clinical utility of triglyceride (TG) to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio in predicting insulin resistance (IR) in 4 ethnic groups and the relationship between IR and TG/HDL-C in comparison to that with other lipid measures. Apparently healthy
BACKGROUND
Serum uric acid (SUA) and triglyceride (TG) levels are strongly correlated with insulin resistance; however, the association after a walking exercise program in community-dwelling older women has not been investigated.
METHODS
The present study included 100 postmenopausal women (mean ±
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by accumulation of triglycerides (TG) in hepatocytes, which may also trigger cirrhosis. The mechanisms of NAFLD are not fully understood, but insulin resistance has been proposed as a key determinant.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the TG content
The inability of insulin to stimulate glucose metabolism in skeletal muscle is a classic characteristic of type 2 diabetes, but this insulin resistance entails altered patterns of lipid metabolism as well. An association between intracellular triglyceride and insulin resistance has been well
Possessing putative hypolipidemic effects, Teucrium polium (TP) have been traditionally used as a medicinal plant in Iran. The aim of the present study was to investigate this effect on the sucrose-induced insulin resistance male rat model. Thirty Wistar male rats weighting 180 ± 20 g were divided
OBJECTIVE
Hepatic steatosis is associated with insulin resistance, but it is not clear whether increased intrahepatic triglyceride (IHTG) content causes the resistance or is a marker. Subjects with familial hypobetalipoproteinemia (FHBL) have high levels of IHTG because of a genetic defect in
BACKGROUND
Insulin-resistance is associated with cardiovascular disease but it is not used as a marker for disease in clinical practice.
OBJECTIVE
To study the association between the homeostatic model assessment (HOMA-IR) and triglyceride/HDLc ratio (TG/HDLc) with the presence of coronary artery
OBJECTIVE
To compare the impact of triglyceride-glucose index (TyG-index), the product of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and triglycerides (TG) with FPG, 2 h post-challenge plasma glucose (2 h-PCPG), TG/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C), and homeostasis model assessment of insulin
BACKGROUND
Retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4), a protein secreted by adipocytes and bound in plasma to transthyretin (TTR), has been associated with obesity, the early phase of insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The objective of this study was to elucidate the
Intracellular triglyceride (TG) is an important energy source for skeletal muscle. However, recent evidence suggests that if muscle contains abnormally high TG stores its sensitivity to insulin may be reduced, and this could predispose to type II diabetes. To test this hypothesis, we measured muscle
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate lipid profiles and liver enzymes as surrogate markers used for recognizing insulin resistance in Korean women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
METHODS
458 women with PCOS were divided into two groups: non-obese with a body mass index (BMI)<25.0 kg/m² and obese with a
Insulin resistance is the pathophysiological precursor of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM-2), and its relationship with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has been widely studied in patients with obesity or metabolic syndrome using not only ultrasound but also liver biopsies or proton magnetic
BACKGROUND
Cardiovascular disease is the main cause of death worldwide and insulin resistance (IR) plays an important role for its development. In addition, IR has been associated with hypertension and metabolic syndrome according to the triglyceride/HDL-cholesterol (TGL/HDL) ratio. We undertook
OBJECTIVE
Insulin resistance, changes in lipid parameters, and cardiometabolic adverse events have been reported in some patients during clinical trials of antipsychotic agents. The present study examined whether the triglyceride/high-density lipoprotein (HDL) ratio can be used as a better surrogate
OBJECTIVE
Treatment with olanzapine is associated with obesity, diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia. Reports have indicated that orally disintegrating tablets (ODT) cause less weight gain than oral standard tablets (OST). The aim of this study was to compare the effect of short-term treatment with
