Abstract

Decreasing of the insulin concentration and increasing of the C-peptide level in blood serum of 72 workers of cryolytes industries detected by radioimmunilogical method. These changes were caused by the fluorine intoxication of workers.

    BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES: Chronic fluoride intoxication through drinking water is a serious health problem. Patients with diabetes are known to have impaired renal function and elimination of fluoride from the body is mainly done through kidney. Fluoride toxicity in diabetes patients may aggravate complications. In this study, the influence of

  • Mathematical model of glucose-insulin homeostasis in healthy rats.

    According to the World Health Organization there are over 220 million people in the world with diabetes and 3.4 million people died in 2004 as a consequence of this pathology. Development of an artificial pancreas would allow to restore control of blood glucose by coupling an infusion pump to a

  • Vitamin D deficiency in patients with diabetes and its correlation with water fluoride levels.

    Chronic exposure to fluoride through drinking water has been linked to insulin resistance and resulting type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Here, we aim to study the impact of water fluoride levels on blood glucose and vitamin D levels. A hospital-based study was conducted on diabetic patients (n = 303) at

  • Dental fluorosis as a complication of hereditary diabetes insipidus: studies of six affected patients.

    Hereditary diabetes insipidus is a rare endocrine disorder caused by a deficiency of the antidiuretic hormone, vasopressin. The disease is characterized by polyuria, extreme thirst, and polydipsia. In this study of six affected members from two families with hereditary diabetes insipidus, it was found that two children who drank water

  • Antihyperglycemic and antihyperlipemic effects of Mangifera Indica L. in fluoride induced toxicity.

    A chronic intake of fluoride through food and drinking water is also known to cause hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia besides fluorosis. The present study deals with the effects of fluoride (100 ppm) induced hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia and the alleviatory potential of Mangifera indica L. on the carbohydrate and lipid profiles in

  • Fluoride & Impaired Glucose Tolerance

    The proper regulation of blood glucose levels is essential to good health. When the body's ability to regulate blood glucose levels falters, as occurs in diabetes mellitus, chronic elevated glucose levels (hyperglycemia) can lead to serious complications. These consequences include damage to the kidneys, nervous system, cardiovascular system, retina, legs

  • Fluoride & Insulin

    Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas that is responsible for maintaining appropriate levels of glucose in the blood. Insulin allows the body’s cells to take up glucose from the blood, and either use it as an energy source or store it as glycogen. Blood glucose levels in diabetics
