They have impaired
glucose tolerance,
in which blood sugar levels are higher than
normal but not high enough to be classified as diabetes.
Carrying a girl implies to maintain
normal glucose tolerance (NGT)
in the first pregnancy.
All of the 18 individuals were appropriately matched with 9 other individuals that had a confirmed
normal tolerance to
glucose, while at the same time being
in need of surgery.
While looking at the MRI scans before and after the procedures, the UK researchers from the Newcastle University were able to deduce that the fat levels
in the pancreas of the individuals who presented with a
normal tolerance to
glucose remained unchanged, since they were not elevated
in the first place; while the participants with type 2 diabetes lost about 1.2 percent of fat from their pancreas.
Moreover, sleep deprivation has a negative effect on our carbohydrate metabolism,
glucose tolerance, and overall endocrine function
in a manner similar to what is often seen
in normal aging.
* Glycemic index determined using white bread as reference food
in subjects with
normal glucose tolerance
In fact, insulin resistance is present in ∼ 25 % of nonobese people with normal glucose tolerance (30
In fact, insulin resistance is present
in ∼ 25 % of nonobese people with normal glucose tolerance (30
in ∼ 25 % of nonobese people with
normal glucose tolerance (30).
Regarding the child, the importance of the intrauterine and early postnatal environments for metabolic programming and modifications of the epigenome is increasingly recognised, 12 — 14 particularly for metabolic diseases such as obesity and diabetes.15 Thus, GDM is related to macrosomia at birth (> 4 kg), to excess body fat and (central) obesity and to insulin secretion
in infants and children, the obesity being
in part mediated by maternal body mass index (BMI) or birth weight.16 — 23 Intrauterine exposure to GDM also doubles the risk for subsequent type 2 diabetes
in offspring compared with offspring of mothers with a high genetic predisposition for type 2 diabetes, but with
normal glucose tolerance during the index pregnancy.24 Maternal prepregnancy overweight and excessive gestational weight gain also predict high birth weight and adiposity during infancy.12 25 This is highly relevant, as up to 60 % — 70 % of women with GDM are overweight or obese before pregnancy.26 Finally, maternal lifestyle behaviour such as a high fat diet or lack of physical activity during pregnancy can influence offspring adiposity independent of maternal obesity.12 27
It is not surprising, therefore, that
in this study of offspring of women with
normal glucose tolerance during pregnancy there was little association between maternal
glucose concentrations and anthropometric measurements at age 2 years.
