Popis: Background: Obesity is often associated with hyper-secrection of insulin. Impaired fasting glucose (IFG) has recently been redefined as a fasting plasma glucose of 5.6-6.9 mmol/L. The aim of this study was to determine whether changes in insulin secretion in morbidly obese persons also commence with normal serum glucose levels. Methods: 32 morbidly obese subjects were studied before and after bariatric surgery. Measurements were made of glucose tolerance (KG), insulin sensitivity (SI), first-phase insulin release and the disposition index (DI) from a frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test. Result: In morbidly obese subjects, the SI (P
