Abstract:
Epidemiology studies have shown that in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD), there was a higher rate of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and the plasma insulin response to glucose challenge was often augmented in those with clinical symptoms. In this prospective study, 24 patients with CHD were compared with 24 normal controls matched in age, sex and weight with special reference to OGTT and IRT. The results showed that in the patients with CHD, the peak values of glucose and insulin declined more slowly and their mean values at 3-hour were both higher than that of controls during OGTT. The frequency of IGT was found to be higher in the patients with CHD than that in the controls (0.05
