1. The degree to which disruption by mastication affects the glycaemic response to four different carbohydrate foods was investigated in healthy human volunteers; each food was eaten by six subjects. 2. Subjects ate meals of sweetcorn, white rice, diced apple or potato on two occasions; on one occasion they chewed the food thoroughly, on the other occasion they swallowed each mouthful without chewing it. 3. When the foods were chewed the postprandial blood glucose levels rose to levels which varied according to the food ingested. 4. Swallowing without chewing reduced the glycaemic response to each food, achieving a similar effect as administration of viscous polysaccharides or 'slow-release' carbohydrates.

Background & Aims: Childhood adiposity and inflammation impact long-term health. However, associations between dietary inflammation and childhood adiposity are unclear. We investigated if more pro-inflammatory diets are associated with greater adiposity in early-, mid-, and late-childhood.

Diabetes presents a significant challenge to healthcare due to the short- and long-term complications associated with poor blood sugar control. Computer simulation platforms have emerged as promising tools for advancing diabetes therapy by simulating patient responses to treatments in a virtual environment. The University of Virginia Virtual Lab (UVLab) is a new simulation platform engineered to mimic the metabolic behavior of individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) using a mathematical model of glucose homeostasis in T2D and a large population of 6062 virtual subjects.

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease that leads to the progressive destruction of insulin-producing β cells, resulting in lifelong insulin dependence and a range of severe complications. Beyond conventional glycemic control, innovative therapeutic strategies are needed to address the underlying disease mechanisms. Recent research has highlighted gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) as a promising therapeutic target for T1D due to its dual role in modulating both β cell survival and immune response within pancreatic islets.

Background: Various blood glucose (BG) variability-related indexes have been widely used to assess glycemic control and predict glycemic risks, but the association between BG variations and prognosis in non-diabetic patients with sepsis remains unclear.
Methods: The single-center retrospective cohort study included 7,049 non-diabetic adults with sepsis who had at least 3 records of bedside capillary point of care BG testing during the first day after ICU admission from MIMIC-IV database (2008 to 2019). Coefficient of variation and standard deviation of glucose (i.

To explore the association between pre-diabetes and glomerular hyperfiltration status in residents in China. The study subjects were the non-diabetes population in China Chronic Disease and Risk Factor Surveillance in 2018. According to the definition of prediabetes, the study subjects were divided into normoglycemic and pre-diabetes groups, and multivariate factorial logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between prediabetes and the risk for glomerular hyperfiltration and glomerular filtration rate decline, respectively.
