  • Title: [Effects of oral glucose load on blood lipids and on platelet function].
    Author: Carleo R, Miano P, Sgambato F, Cioffi LA.
    Journal: Boll Soc Ital Biol Sper; 1980 May 15; 56(9):853-9. PubMed ID: 7448083.
    Abstract:
    Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) has been performed on 12 healthy men. Plasma glucose, cholesterol, triglycerides, total lipids, NEFA, and number, adhesiveness and aggregating of platelets have been measured before and during OGTT (at 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 mins). Results demonstrate that OGTT decreases during the 1st hour, increases during the 2nd hour, and brings again to the initial value the platelet aggregation during the 3rd hour. The biphasic trend of platelet aggregation, in comparison with the monophasic OGTT curve, allows us to hypothesize some relationships between platelet aggregation and not only blood glucose concentration but also the activity of some hormones controlling both blood sugar level and platelet function.
