“…Thus, the prevalence of abnormal oral glucose tolerance tests is markedly increased in hyperthyroid patients (Doar, Stamp, Wynn and Audhya 1969;Foldes, Banos, Varadi, Gyertyanfy and Borvendeg 1981;Hales and Hyams 1964;Hamada, Ito, Mimura, Momotani, Nishikawa, Ban, Fujii, Morii and Wada 1979;Ikejiri, Yamada and Ogura 1975;Kabadi andEisenstein 1980;Kreines, Jett and Knowles 1965;Maxon, Kreines, Goldsmith and Knowles 1975). Intravenous glucose tolerance was abnormal in some reports (Asano and Okumura 1982;Doar et al 1969;Wajchenberg, Cesar, Leme, Souza, Pieroni and Mattar 1978) although normal in others (Andreani, Menzinger, Fallucca, Aliberti, Tamburrano and Cassano 1970;Baker, Dimitriadis, Marsh, Rizza, Bergman and Gerich 1983;Hamada et al 1979).…”
