Determinants of blood glucose concentrations following a high carbohydrate meal in type 2 diabetes: A multiple linear regression analysis

Diabetes Res Clin PractPublished Cross-sectional study

Authors' conclusion

This study showed that in relatively well-controlled type 2 diabetes blood glucose levels after a high carbohydrate meal were associated positively with fasting blood glucose, but also positively with gastric emptying in the first hour and negatively with the increments in plasma glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) in the later postprandial phase.

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Determinants of postprandial blood glucose
  • Positively associated with fasting blood glucose
  • Positively associated with gastric emptying in the first hour
  • Negatively associated with increments in plasma GLP-1 in the later postprandial phase

Observational data: associations, not effects.
