The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships among insulin resistance and albumin excretion rate in 25 nondiabetic patients with essential hypertension and in 28 patients with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Two groups of healthy subjects matched for age, sex, and weight served as controls. Patients with essential hypertension were divided into two subgroups: without (H1) and with (H2) microalbuminuria. Diabetic patients were divided into four subgroups: those with normoalbuminuria without (NIDDM1) and with (NIDDM2) hypertension and those with microalbuminuria without (NIDDM3) and with (NIDDM4) hypertension. Whole-body glucose utilization during euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamp (40 mU/m2/min insulin infusion) was calculated by tracer dilution techniques (6,6 2H2 glucose tracer continuous infusion) and was significantly lower in hypertensives with microalbuminuria than in those without (H2 versus H1 versus controls: 3.41 +/- 0.51 versus 6.52 +/- 0.62 versus 7.03 +/- 0.48 mg/kg/min; mean +/- SE). Whole-body glucose utilization in NIDDM patients--NIDDM4 versus NIDDM3 versus NIDDM2 versus NIDDM1 versus controls--was: 1.86 +/- 0.31 versus 2.21 +/- 0.39 versus 2.01 +/- 0.40 versus 5.98 +/- 0.77 versus 5.52 +/- 0.92 mg/kg/min (mean +/- SE). Whereas the first three subgroups did not differ among themselves, they had significantly lower glucose utilization than did the normotensive NIDDM1 patients without microalbuminuria and nondiabetic controls (P < 0.01). Hypertensives with microalbuminuria had higher Vmax of sodium-lithium countertransport (Na/Li CTT) in red blood cells than did both hypertensives without microalbuminuria and controls. It was also observed that NIDDM patients with microalbuminuria had higher Vmax of Na/Li CTT than did NIDDM patients without microalbuminuria and controls.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

D006973 Hypertension Persistently high systemic arterial BLOOD PRESSURE. Based on multiple readings (BLOOD PRESSURE DETERMINATION), hypertension is currently defined as when SYSTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently greater than 140 mm Hg or when DIASTOLIC PRESSURE is consistently 90 mm Hg or more. Blood Pressure, High,Blood Pressures, High,High Blood Pressure,High Blood Pressures
D007333 Insulin Resistance Diminished effectiveness of INSULIN in lowering blood sugar levels: requiring the use of 200 units or more of insulin per day to prevent HYPERGLYCEMIA or KETOSIS. Insulin Sensitivity,Resistance, Insulin,Sensitivity, Insulin
D007668 Kidney Body organ that filters blood for the secretion of URINE and that regulates ion concentrations. Kidneys
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008055 Lipids A generic term for fats and lipoids, the alcohol-ether-soluble constituents of protoplasm, which are insoluble in water. They comprise the fats, fatty oils, essential oils, waxes, phospholipids, glycolipids, sulfolipids, aminolipids, chromolipids (lipochromes), and fatty acids.

D003924 Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 A subclass of DIABETES MELLITUS that is not INSULIN-responsive or dependent (NIDDM). It is characterized initially by INSULIN RESISTANCE and HYPERINSULINEMIA; and eventually by GLUCOSE INTOLERANCE; HYPERGLYCEMIA; and overt diabetes. Type II diabetes mellitus is no longer considered a disease exclusively found in adults. Patients seldom develop KETOSIS but often exhibit OBESITY.
