Concordance for Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes was determined in 250 monozygotic and 264 dizygotic white male twin pairs who participated in the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Twin Study. These twins were born between 1917 and 1927 and were identified from military records withou

Insulin responses to intravenous glucose infusion and glucose utilization during hyperinsulinaemic euglycaemic clamp were determined in a large homogeneous group of 65-year-old male subjects. Twenty-eight had untreated Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus and the remaining 44 control sub
In non-diabetic subjects, insulin concentrations and insulin resistance are clearly connected, and both correlate with leptin levels, making interpretations about mechanisms difficult. In non-insulin-dependent (Type 2) diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), however, insulin concentrations and insulin resistance
