Glucose tolerance was tested with a 75g oral glucose load (OGTT) and insulin sensitivity was measured by the insulin suppression test (IST) while dietary and drug treatment of the hyperglycemia was maintained constant. In the whole group. mean blood pressure (MBP) fell progressively over 3months from a baseline value of 123± 3 mmHg (1 mmHg= 0. 133 kpa) to a final value of 115± 2 mmHg(P<0. 005). After treatment, fasting plasma glucose, insulin, free fatty acid (FFA). potassium, and glycosylated hemoglobin concentrations were unchanged from baseline. There were no significant differences in glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity between pre- and post-trearment values. Neither endogenous (oral glucose) nor exogenous (IST) insulin caused any change in plasma potassium concentration. This resistance to the hypokalemic action of insulin was not affected by captopril.展开更多
