Insights Into Glucose Tolerance
“Insights Into Glucose Tolerance” by Vanessa Artiga, published by Hayle Medical on March 16, 2015, is a comprehensive exploration of glucose tolerance and its implications for health. This 256-page book presents up-to-date information on the transition from normal glucose tolerance to type 2 diabetes, detailing the transitional stages of impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance, commonly referred to as pre-diabetes. The text delves into the complex pathophysiology associated with these metabolic changes, emphasizing the balance between insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion.
Readers will find a thorough examination of the molecular basis of the signaling pathways that influence insulin’s physiological outcomes. The book highlights newly recognized substrates and signaling molecules, as well as prospective methods related to the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes. Additionally, it discusses therapeutic advancements aimed at improving glycemic control in both pre-diabetic and diabetic conditions. This edition serves as a valuable resource for those interested in the medical aspects of endocrinology and metabolism.
Official synopsis Publisher
The various insights into glucose tolerance are highlighted in this elaborative book with the help of up-to-date information. The development from normal glucose tolerance (NGT) to type 2 diabetes is associated with the involvement of transitional stages of impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), also known as pre-diabetes. The pathophysiology fundamentally associated with the growth of these glucose metabolic changes is caused by multiple factors, resulting in a change responsible for the balance between insulin sensitivity and insulin secretion. Our understanding of the molecular basis of the signalling pathways monitoring the numerous physiologic outcomes of insulin is gradually increasing. New substrates and signalling molecules have been acknowledged and prospective methods engaged in the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes have been discovered. This book elucidates the existing state of information on the pathophysiology underlying the development from normal glucose tolerance to type 2 diabetes and therapeutic improvements in the glycaemic control in pre-diabetic and diabetic states.
