Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleStudy of Modified Oral Minimal Model using n-Order Decay Rate of Plasma Insulin for the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test in Subjects with Normal, Impaired and Diabetic Glucose ToleranceAgus Kartono, Egha Sabila Putri, Ardian Arif Setiawan et al.In this present study, the modified Oral Minimal Model (OMM), with secretion of insulin from pancreas was assumed that the insulin decay rate was not always a ﬁrst-orderly process in the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT), had been developed to study Normal Glucose Tolerance (NGT), Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT or pre-diabetes) and type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) subjects. The modified … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 25 Apr 2017 · 7,976 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Permutation Test for Comparing Two Correlated Receiver Operating Characteristic CurvesOkeh Uchechukwu Marius, Onyeagu SidneyThe area under the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) is a summary measure when comparing two ROC curves. However, this summary measure is less informative when two ROC curves cross and have the same AUCs. In order to detect differences between ROC curves and to be able to tackle the problem of exchangeability of the labels between two diagnostic … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 24 May 2020 · 8,129 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEthanolic Extract of Leaves of Newbouldia laevis Attenuates Glycosylation of Hemoglobin and Lipid Peroxidation in Diabetic RatsKolawole O. Timothy, Akanji M. Adewumi, Awe O. Emmanuel, Akiibinu M. OlayemiDiabetes is one of the major health problems around the world and the incidence of this metabolic disorder is on the increase. Current therapeutic interventions have not done much in preventing complications of diabetes. Therefore this study investigated the effect of ethanolic extract of Newbouldia laevis leaves (NLet) on lipid peroxidation and glycosylation of hemoglobin, which are pathological indicators of … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 13 Nov 2013 · 8,121 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn vivo, Acute, Normo-hypoglycemic, Antihyperglycemic, Insulinotropic Actions of Orally Administered Ethanol Extract of Citrullus colocynthis (L.) Schrab PulpMahmoud Al-Khateeb, Mohammad Dallak, Fahaid Al-Hashem et al.Problem statement: Citrullus colocynthis (L.) Schrab (cucurbitaceae family) (Handal) is a fruit commonly known as bitter apple or bitter cucumber. Traditionally, Citrullus colocynthis has been used for the treatment of diabetes. In particular, the acute effect and rout of administration of ethanol extract of the seedless pulp in vivo remains untested. We investigated the effect of different routs of administration … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,306 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of S-Nitroso-N-Acetylpenicillamine and S-Nitroso-Captopril Co-Administered with Cysteine on Blood Glucose Concentration in an Animal ModelSacha Campbell, Ruby Alexander-Lindo, Tara Dasgupta et al.The study sought to test the hypothesis that co-administration of SNAP and cysteine or CapSNO and cysteine in normoglycaemic rats may further reduce glucose tolerance. An oral glucose tolerance was carried out and the plasma nitrite concentrations were measured and taken as the biochemical markers of in vivo NO formation. The results showed blood glucose levels were significantly elevated at … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,221 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Vitamin C on the Metabolic Parameters of Experimental Diabetes MellitusMariam Al-Shamsi, Amr Amin, Ernest AdeghateThe role of vitamin C on diabetes mellitus is unknown. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of oral administration of vitamin C on some of the metabolic parameters of diabetic rats. Diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal injection of STZ (60 mg kgˉ1 body weight at 12 weeks of age). Vitamin C (10, 50, 100 mg kgˉ1 … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,068 accessesView PDF Cite
