Abstract:
After treatment for 3 months in the patients with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), plasma glucose, insulin and homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) were decreased both in rosiglitazone therapy group and in the group treated with rosiglitazone combined with body weight control.Those parameters in the latter group were decreased more significantly than those in the former.Rosiglitazone ameliorates the insulin resistance in patients with IGT, which is further improved when combined with body weight control.
