Title: Inappropriate counter-regulatory hormone levels in insulin treated diabetes. Author: Danowski TS, Fisher ER, Kozak W, Bahl VK, Stephan T, Nolan S, Ahmad U. Journal: PDM; 1976; 7(9-12)8(1-8):7-16. PubMed ID: 1052833. Abstract: The data herein presented describe, identify, and quantitate interrelationships among blood glucose and serum insulin, growth hormone, cortisol, and glucagon levels of hospitalized insulin-treated diabetic patients. The findings indicate that conventional diet and insulin therapy of diabetes mellitus is almost always accompanied by inappropriate counter-regulation by growth hormone, cortisol, and glucagon. The data are consonant with the hypothesis that a shortage of insulin is only one of the multihormonal defects of diabetes.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
