<b>Objective:</b> We examined the glucose-response-curves [<b><u>B</u></b>i<b><u>ph</u></b>asic (BPh), <b><u>M</u></b>ono<b><u>ph</u></b>asic (MPh), <b><u>I</u></b>ncessant-<b><u>In</u></b>crease (IIn)], during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), and their relationship to insulin sensitivity (IS) and b-cell function (bCF) in youth vs. adults with IGT or recently diagnosed type 2 diabetes. <p><b>Research Design and Methods:</b> This was both a cross-sectional and longitudinal evaluation of participants in the RISE study randomized to metformin alone for 12 months or glargine for 3 months followed by metformin for 9 months. At baseline/randomization, OGTTs (85 youth, 353 adults) were categorized as BPh, MPh, or IIn. The relationship of the glucose-response-curves to hyperglycemic-clamp-measured IS and bCF at baseline, and the change in glucose-response-curves 12 months after randomization were assessed. </p> <p><b>Results:</b> At randomization, the prevalence of the BPh-curve was significantly higher in youth than adults (18.8% vs. 8.2%), with no differences in MPh or IIn. IS did not differ across glucose-response-curves in youth or adults. However, irrespective of curve type, youth had lower IS than adults (p<0.05). bCF was lowest in IIn vs. MPh and BPh in youth and adults (p <0.05). Yet, compared with adults, youth had higher bCF in BPh and MPh (p<0.005), but not IIn curves. At month 12, the change in glucose-response-curves did not differ between youth and adults, and there was no treatment effect. </p> <p><b>Conclusions:</b> Despite a 2-fold higher prevalence of the more-favorable BPh curve in youth at randomization, RISE interventions did not result in beneficial changes in glucose-response-curves in youth compared with adults. Moreover, the typical b-cell hypersecretion in youth was not present in the IIn curve, emphasizing the severity of b-cell dysfunction in youth with this least- favorable glucose-response-curve.</p>

Aims: To compare insulin sensitivity, β-cell function and iron status biomarkers in non-transfusion-dependent thalassaemia (NTDT) with iron excess during pre- and post-iron chelation. Methods: Subjects with NTDT, aged older than 10 years, with serum ferritin >300 ng/ml, were included. Iron chelation with deferasirox (10 mg/kg/day) was prescribed daily for 6 months. Results: Ten patients with a median age of 17.4 years were enrolled. The comparison between pre- and post-chelation demonstrated significantly lower iron load: median serum ferritin (551.4 vs. 486.2 ng/ml, p = 0.047), median TIBC (211.5 vs. 233.5 µg/dl, p = 0.009) and median non-transferrin binding iron (5.5 vs. 1.4 µM, p = 0.005). All patients had a normal oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) both pre- and post-chelation. However, fasting plasma glucose was significantly reduced after iron chelation (85.0 vs.79.5 mg/dl, p = 0.047). MRI revealed no significant changes of iron accumulation in the heart and liver after chelation, but there was a significantly lower iron load in the pancreas, assessed by higher T2* at post-chelation compared with pre-chelation (41.9 vs. 36.7 ms, p = 0.047). No adverse events were detected. Conclusions: A trend towards improving insulin sensitivity and β-cell function as well as a reduced pancreatic iron load was observed following 6 months of iron chelation (TCTR20160523003).

Although a hyperbolic relationship between insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity has been shown, the relationship has been often questioned. We examined the relationship using oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)-derived indexes. A total of 374 Japanese subjects who had never been given a diagnosis of diabetes underwent a 75-g OGTT. In subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT), the ln [insulinogenic index (IGI)] was described by a linear function of ln ( x) ( x, insulin sensitivity index) in regression analysis when the reciprocal of the insulin resistance index in homeostasis model assessment, Matsuda's index, and oral glucose insulin sensitivity index were used as x. Because the 95% confidence interval of the slope of the regression line did not necessarily include −1, the relationships between IGI and x were not always hyperbolic, but power functions IGI × xα = a constant. We thought that IGI × xα was an appropriate β-cell function estimate adjusted by insulin sensitivity and referred to it as β-cell function index (BI). When Matsuda's index was employed as x, the BI values were decreased in subjects without NGT. Log BI had a better correlation with fasting plasma glucose (PG; FPG) and 2-h PG in non-NGT subjects than in NGT subjects. In subjects with any glucose tolerance, log BI was linearly correlated with 1-h PG and glucose spike (the difference between maximum PG and FPG). In conclusion, the relationship between insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity was not always hyperbolic. The BI is a useful tool in the estimation of β-cell function with a mathematical basis.

AbstractAssessment of plasma insulin and glucose outcomes is important in paediatric studies aimed at reducing future risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. The aims of this study are to determine the between-method agreement and the day-to-day reliability of fasting and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)-derived estimates of insulin sensitivity and β-cell function in healthy boys. Fasting and OGTT assesments of insulin resistance and β-cell function were performed on 28 boys (12.3±2.9 years). Measurements were repeated after 1 week (fasting, n=28) and 1 day (OGTT, n=8). Agreement between estimates of insulin resistance and β-cell function was examined using Pearson’s correlation coefficient. Reliability was assessed using change in the mean, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and typical error expressed as a coefficient of variation (CV). The Matsuda index was positively related with QUICKI (r=0.88, P<0.001) and negatively related to HOMA-IR (r=−0.76, P<0.001). The Cederholm index was not significantly related with fasting estimates of insulin resistance (all r<0.40, P>0.05). For reliability, QUICKI had the lowest CV% for the fasting (4.7%) and the Cederholm index for the OGTT (6.4%) estimates. The largest CV% was observed in fasting insulin (30.8%) and insulinogenic index 30’ (62.5%). This study highlights differences in between-method agreement and day-to-day reliability for estimates of insulin resistance in youth. The low CV supports the use of the FGIR (fasting) and Cederholm (OGTT) indices in this population.

Abstract Objective: Insulin sensitivity and secretion during early and late pregnancy were assessed in women with normal glucose tolerance and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Research Design and Methods: The oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was performed in 903 women at 16–20th gestational week, of whom 37 had GDM (GDM1 group), and 859 repeated the OGTT at wk 26–30. At the second test, 55 had GDM (GDM2 group); the others remained normotolerant (ND group). Insulin sensitivity from OGTT (as quantitative insulin sensitivity check index and OGTT insulin sensitivity) and β-cell function (as the ratio of the areas under the insulin and glucose concentration curves, adjusted for insulin sensitivity) were assessed in both tests. Results: In early pregnancy the quantitative insulin sensitivity check index was not different in the three groups, whereas OGTT insulin sensitivity was lowest in GDM2, intermediate in GDM1, and highest in ND. In late pregnancy both indices were reduced in GDM compared with ND and lower than in early pregnancy. In early pregnancy GDM1, but not GDM2, had lower β-cell function than ND. During the late visit, GDM2 also showed impaired β-cell function compared with ND; furthermore, the adaptation to the increase to insulin resistance from early to late pregnancy was defective in GDM2. Conclusions: In early pregnancy insulin sensitivity, as assessed from the OGTT but not from fasting measurements, is impaired in women who developed GDM. β-Cell function impairment is evident only when GDM is manifest and is characterized by inappropriate adaptation to the pregnancy induced increase in insulin resistance.

Assessment of insulin secretion in humans under physiological conditions has been a challenge because of its complex interplay with insulin action and hepatic insulin extraction. The possibility of simultaneously assessing β-cell function, insulin sensitivity, and hepatic insulin extraction under physiological conditions using a simple protocol is appealing, since it has the potential to provide novel insights regarding the regulation of fasting and postprandial glucose metabolism in diabetic and nondiabetic humans. In this Perspective, we review data indicating that an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) or a meal test is able to accomplish this goal when interpreted with the oral β-cell minimal model. We begin by using the well-established intravenous minimal model to highlight how the oral minimal model was developed and how the oral assessment parallels that of an intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT). We also point out the unique aspects of both approaches in relation to their ability to assess different aspects of the β-cell secretory cascade. We review the ability of the oral model to concurrently measure insulin sensitivity and hepatic insulin extraction, thereby enabling it to quantitatively portray the complex relationship among β-cell function, hepatic insulin extraction, and insulin action. In addition, data from 204 individuals (54 young and 159 elderly) who underwent both IVGTT and meal tolerance tests are used to illustrate how these different approaches provide complementary but differing insights regarding the regulation of β-cell function in humans.

The use of animal models in diabetes research requires reliable tests for evaluation of insulin sensitivity and β-cell function. Minipigs are being increasingly used in metabolic research, and the aim of this study was to compare different tests and indexes for evaluation of insulin sensitivity and β-cell function in Göttingen minipigs. Hyperinsulinemic, isoglycemic clamp, intravenous (IVGTT) and oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTT), and a modified insulin tolerance test were performed in minipigs fed either low- or high-energy diet. Furthermore, the reproducibility of IVGTT-derived parameters was assessed. Previously described insulin sensitivity indexes [steady-state glucose infusion rate/glucose concentration/insulin concentration from clamp (M/G/I); oral glucose insulin sensitivity (OGIS) and ISIcomp from OGTT; SI from minimal model analysis of IVGTT; and quantitative insulin sensitivity check index from fasting values] were calculated together with an insulin sensitivity index from the modified insulin tolerance test (ISIITT) and a new simple index (S2) derived from the first 30 min of the IVGTT. β-Cell function was assessed from the IVGTT and the OGTT. Reproducibility of the IVGTT-derived parameters was calculated as median intraindividual coefficient of variation (CV%).M/G/I correlated significantly only with S2 ( P < 0.05, r = 0.54). S2 furthermore correlated with SI ( P < 0.001, r = 0.81), ISIITT ( P < 0.001, r = 0.57), and the two indexes from OGTT, ISIcomp ( P < 0.001, r = 0.78) and OGIS ( p < 0.05, r = 0.48). No correlation was found between β-cell function indexes from OGTT and IVGTT. The median CV% of the new S2 index was 13. In conclusion, the new simple index of insulin sensitivity, S2, was revealed to be useful for evaluation of insulin sensitivity in pigs.

Abstract Background The shape of the glucose response during an oral glucose tolerance test can detect β-cell function and insulin resistance. But there were few studies in Chinese, so we aimed to verify the utility of these connections in a large Chinese population. Methods A total of 11,866 times of 3-h OGTT were categorized to either a monophasic or a multiphasic group based on the shape of the glucose response. Homeostasis model assessments of fasting insulin resistance, Matsuda index, insulinogenic index and the disposition index were assessed by plasma glucose and serum insulin concentration obtained at fasting or during an OGTT. Results Individuals with a monophasic shape had significantly higher glucose, insulin, and had significantly lower insulin sensitivity and impaired β-cell function than multiphasic group. In addition, Individuals were younger with a multiphasic shape compared to those with a monophasic shape. Conclusion The monophasic OGTT glucose response curve could reflect impaired β-cell function in a large Chinese population.
