COLLOCATIONS FROM CORPUS
■ ADJECTIVE
impaired
▪
Prospective studies have also been performed in subjects with impaired glucose intolerance.
▪
The non-insulin dependent diabetic subjects had similar birth weight to subjects with normoglycaemia or impaired glucose tolerance.
■ NOUN
absorption
▪
Furthermore, restricting intraluminal sodium concentration in jejunal perfusion does not seem to limit glucose absorption .
blood
▪
For known diabetics the blood glucose can be rechecked four-hourly for at least the first 48 hours.
▪
Of these six hormones, insulin is the only one that decreases the blood glucose level.
▪
Ideally, the diagnosis should be confirmed before treatment, and this can be done with capillary blood glucose test sticks.
▪
Insulin therapy is started if blood glucose levels remain elevated despite following these measures.
▪
Risk of death increased with increasing blood glucose concentrations.
▪
Both hormones are antagonistic to insulin and hence increase blood glucose .
▪
If the blood glucose is above 20 mmol/l a sample should be sent to the laboratory for a definitive result.
▪
This is the basis of a highly specific method for the measurement of blood glucose .
concentration
▪
Risk of death increased with increasing blood glucose concentrations .
▪
The greater the glucose concentration in the plasma, the greater the number of hemoglobin molecules that will become glycosylated.
▪
Plasma glucose concentrations did not differ between the two groups.
▪
As glucose concentration falls, severe volume depletion may be unmasked.
▪
Figure 1 shows mean serum glucose concentrations reached during clamping.
▪
Recently several studies have emphasised the importance of serum glucose concentrations in the regulation of gastrointestinal function.
▪
When audits have gone beyond counting activity alone they have focused mainly on blood glucose concentration as a proxy measure of outcome.
▪
Neither the size of the responses nor the glucose concentration at which they began during stepped slow fall hypoglycaemia was different.
intolerance
▪
Prospective studies have also been performed in subjects with impaired glucose intolerance .
▪
The degree of glucose intolerance for any given birth weight was influenced independently by body mass index in adulthood.
level
▪
Diabetics and those with postprandial blood glucose levels between 5.4-11.
▪
Of these six hormones, insulin is the only one that decreases the blood glucose level .
▪
This leads to lower postprandial glucose levels and less frequent episodes of hypoglycaemia.
▪
Insulin therapy is started if blood glucose levels remain elevated despite following these measures.
▪
To control blood pressure at the expense of the blood glucose level or with elevated lipid levels does not represent successful treatment.
▪
Most studies have found no increase in fetal mortality when blood glucose levels are controlled in this way.
▪
The glucose level is depressed, often to less than 20, and the protein is elevated.
▪
To date, diabetics rely largely on insulin medication, discovered in 1921, to regulate their blood glucose levels .
molecule
▪
Glycosylated hemoglobin refers to the specific red cell hemoglobin A types to which a glucose molecule becomes irreversibly attached.
plasma
▪
Achieved plasma glucose and insulin concentrations were determined as the mean of the 50, 55, and 60 minute samples.
▪
Six subjects did not consent to a glucose tolerance test and tolerance was determined from fasting plasma glucose and insulin concentrations.
tolerance
▪
The glucose tolerance test is used to observe the response of the patient to a glucose load or challenge.
▪
The subjects had a continuous infusion glucose tolerance test.
▪
Impaired glucose tolerance is a condition that means your blood glucose falls between normal and diabetic.
▪
Results - Twenty seven subjects had non-insulin dependent diabetes, 32 had impaired glucose tolerance , and 42 were normoglycaemic.
▪
Six subjects did not consent to a glucose tolerance test and tolerance was determined from fasting plasma glucose and insulin concentrations.
▪
The reproducibility, sensitivity, and specificity of the continuous infusion glucose tolerance test have been reported.
▪
This group has carried out a large multicentre study on glucose tolerance in normal pregnancy.
■ VERB
use
▪
Both underestimate incidence as neither study used glucose challenge.
▪
The activated lymphocytes are able to use up glucose extremely quickly.
EXAMPLES FROM CORPUS
▪
Food could be turned into energy via respiration, in which glucose is either derived from food or from photosynthesis.
▪
For known diabetics the blood glucose can be rechecked four-hourly for at least the first 48 hours.
▪
In the Cardiff trial 14% of community care patients received regular general practitioner review and only 5% received yearly blood glucose estimations.
▪
Insulin therapy is started if blood glucose levels remain elevated despite following these measures.
▪
Six subjects did not consent to a glucose tolerance test and tolerance was determined from fasting plasma glucose and insulin concentrations.
▪
The activated lymphocytes are able to use up glucose extremely quickly.
▪
The subjects had a continuous infusion glucose tolerance test.
▪
When audits have gone beyond counting activity alone they have focused mainly on blood glucose concentration as a proxy measure of outcome.
