Abstract

|
|
Glucose tolerance and serum insulin level are good tools in diagncsis of diab:tes mellitus. There have been few normal value of the above reported. However, oral glucose tolerance and serum insulin levels were observed in 54 medical students of Yonsei University.
The results were as follows:
1. Maximum level of blood glucose was observed at 30 minutes following the oral glucose dosage, and it was 1. 3 times higher than the fasting level. This value is lower than of Europeans.
2. Fasting serum insulin level was 22. 81. 5,uU/ml. This is similar to that of European and Japanese´s fasting serum insulin values.
3. The serum insulin level at 30 minutes following the glucose intake was 36. 3,uU/ml. This is 1. 6 times higher than that of the fasting level, and it is quite lower than that of the Europeans.
4. Blood glucose level showed a good parallel to the serum insulin level. It may indicate that insulin secretion is controlled by blood glucose level.
