Untersuchungen zur circadianen Rhythmik der Glucosetoleranz

Abstract: The present investigation was designed to determine whether the circadian rhythm of glucose utilization is based on a quantitatively different release of insulin and/or on changing secretory dynamics of the hormone. 22 healthy men received three oral glucose tolerance tests in the morning, afternoon and evening of the same day. The blood sugar levels in the afternoon and evening tests were significantly higher than those found in the morning tests. Also the plasma insulin response was higher in the afternoon t… Show more

“…(However, fasting glucose is usually lower in the afternoon and evening than in the morning [51, 63]. ) The size of the diurnal variation in glucose tolerance is strikingly large: adults with normal glucose tolerance in the morning are metabolically equivalent to being prediabetic in the evening [33, 36, 46]. More recently, we reported that oral glucose tolerance in prediabetic adults was 40 mg/dl higher at 19:00 h than at 7:00 h, making prediabetic adults metabolically equivalent to early-stage diabetics at dinnertime [63].…”
