Comparative Study of Insulin Resistance in Healthy young Adults with and without Family History of Diabetes Mellitus
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
Family history of diabetes is an important risk factor for diabetes mellitus. Insulin resistance (IR) is central feature in the natural history of Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and Type-2 DM. we studied occurrence of insulin resistance in healthy young adults and subjects with family history of diabetes. Subjects with F/H of DM had higher levels of fasting plasma insulin and Insulin Resistance compared to those without F/H of DM Recognition of IR in the pre-disease state would be beneficial, as it affords, potential implementation of interventions designed to reduce such disease development
