O knihe

This book is a comprehensive guide to understanding the significance of 1-hour plasma glucose levels during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) in the diagnosis and management of diabetes and related conditions. The book explores the intricate mechanisms of glucose metabolism, insulin secretion, and glucose homeostasis in the body, providing a detailed account of the role of pancreatic beta-cells, glucose transporters, and insulin sensitivity. The book highlights the correlation between elevated 1-hour plasma glucose and the risk of developing impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular disease. It also delves into the various diagnostic tests and tools available for monitoring blood glucose levels, such as glucometers and continuous glucose monitoring. In addition, the book discusses the complications associated with hyperglycemia, including neuropathy, retinopathy, nephropathy, and hyperlipidemia. It also sheds light on the importance of glycemic control and effective management of blood glucose levels through medication, insulin pumps, and lifestyle modifications. Overall, "Elevated 1 Hour Plasma Glucose" is an essential resource for healthcare professionals, researchers, and individuals seeking to better understand the complexities of glucose regulation and diabetes management.
