DIAGNOSIS OF CARBOHYDRAtE MEtABOLISM DIStURBANCES BY DEtERMINAtION OF GLUCOSE GUStA-TORY SENSITIVITY AND ITS CORRELATION WITH METABOLIC ALTERATIONS

Keywords

disturbed glucose tolerance, absolute threshold of glucose gustatory sensitivity, prophylactic examination

Abstarct

Noninvasive technique of carbohydrate metabolism disturbances diagnosis by glucose gustatory sen- sitivity evaluation was approved in prophylactic examinations of working population within the bounds of “Health” national project. Use of this screening technique allowed to reveal 140 patients with carbohydrate metabolism disturbances. Then their diagnosis was confirmed and clarified by traditional invasive examinations. Disturbed glucose tolerance was diagnosed in 80 patients; it might be rather complicated in ordinary examinations without the technique suggested. Correlation between absolute threshold index of glucose gustatory sensitivity and gly- colic hemoglobin, fat tissue content in organism, components of blood lipid profile, insulin resistance index were revealed.
