OBJECTIVE
To assess the prevalence and clinical predictors of silent myocardial ischemia in asymptomatic patients with type 2 diabetes and to test the effectiveness of current American Diabetes… (More)
131 D iabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyper-osmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS) are two of the most serious acute complications of diabetes. These hypergly-cemic emergencies continue to be important… (More)
Insulin-induced increases in blood flow are hypothesized to enhance overall glucose uptake by skeletal muscle. Whether the insulin-mediated changes in blood flow are associated with altered blood… (More)
Although insulin stimulates protein synthesis and inhibits protein breakdown in skeletal muscle in vitro, the actual contribution of these actions to its anabolic effects in man remains unknown.… (More)
CONTEXT
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the major cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with type 2 diabetes. But the utility of screening patients with type 2 diabetes for asymptomatic CAD… (More)

We examined the effects of inhibiting nitric oxide synthase with Nomega-nitro-l-arginine-methyl ester (l-NAME) on total hindlimb blood flow, muscle microvascular recruitment, and hindlimb glucose… (More)
Since the initial proposal of the glucose fatty acid cycle, considerable controversy has arisen concerning its physiologic significance in vivo. In the present study, we examined the effect of acute,… (More)
Insulin increases glucose disposal into muscle. In addition, in vivo insulin elicits distinct nitric oxide synthase-dependent vascular responses to increase total skeletal muscle blood flow and to… (More)

An inhibitor of human liver glycogen phosphorylase a (HLGPa) has been identified and characterized in vitro and in vivo. This substance, [R-(R*,… (More)
Supraphysiological doses of insulin enhance total limb blood flow and recruit capillaries in skeletal muscle. Whether these processes change in response to physiological hyperinsulinemia is… (More)
