title: [The use of insulin-modified intravenous glucose tolerance test in the diagnosis of insulin resistance in patients with metabolic syndrome].
abstract: Fifty-five patients (mean age 42.3) with clinical signs of metabolic syndrome were investigated. The peroral glucose-tolerance and insulin-modified intravenous glucose-tolerance tests were used in the diagnosis of insulin-resistance. According to the SI index, a lower tissue sensitivity to insulin was detected in 48 (87%) of patients; it is noteworthy, that a low SI index was registered in some of them, when indirect signs of insulin-resistance, like hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, were absent.
