Chromium. The history of the investigations estabHshing the essentiaHty of chromium has been reviewed (136). An effect of brewer s yeast in preventing or curing impaired glucose tolerance in rats was revealed, and the active factor was identified as a Cr(III) organic complex, glucose tolerance... 

Long -term sequelae of chronic pancreatitis include dietary malabsorption, impaired glucose tolerance, cholangitis, and potential addiction to opioid analgesics. 

Approximately 80% of patients with a GFR less than 20 to 30 mL/minute develop metabolic acidosis.38 Metabolic acidosis can increase protein catabolism and decrease albumin synthesis, which promote muscle wasting, and alter bone metabolism. Other consequences associated with metabolic acidosis in CKD include worsening cardiac disease, impaired glucose tolerance, altered growth hormone and thyroid function, and inflammation.38... 

Pre-diabetes (i.e., previously identified with impaired glucose tolerance or impaired fasting glucose)... 

Previous impaired glucose tolerance or impaired fasting glucose... 

Hyperglycemia that can range from impaired glucose tolerance (75%) to diabetes mellitus (20% to 50%)... 

Increased insulin resistance and increased prevalence of impaired glucose tolerance. 

PCOS is associated with a three to seven times increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes.14 Patients diagnosed with PCOS should be screened for impaired glucose tolerance, diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia.12 If any of these conditions are present, there is an increased risk of cardiovascular events.

Impaired glucose tolerance is diagnosed when the 2-hour postload sample of the oral glucose tolerance test is between 140 and 199 mg per dL (7.8 to 11.0 mmol/L). 

As mentioned above, insulin secretion by p-cells of the pancreatic islets increases in response to increasing glucose concentrations. In the insulin-resistant state, despite insulin concentrations that are increased two- to three-fold, there is an excessive rate of liver-glucose production. In addition, skeletal muscle glucose disposal in response to insulin is markedly decreased. This results in increased glucose concentrations. This inability to control glucose concentrations, is referred to as impaired glucose tolerance and may ultimately lead to type-2 diabetes. 

With respect to glycaemic parameters FXR-deficient mice (FXR ) show impaired glucose tolerance, whole-body glucose disposal and insulin resistance. FXR deficiency is also associated with impaired distal insulin signalling in muscle and WAT through reduced insulin-dependent AKT phosphorylation. ... 

Q73 Gl ucosamine should be used with care in patients with impaired glucose tolerance. Glucosamine may cause nausea, abdominal pain and indigestion as side-effects. 

Impaired glucose tolerance decreased pregnanediol excretion reduced response to metyrapone test reduced serum folate concentration.
