Reversal of type 2 diabetes: normalisation of beta cell function in association with decreased pancreas and liver triacylglycerol (2011, background): “Fasting plasma glucose concentration is determined by the rate of hepatic glucose production, and hepatic insulin sensitivity is inversely proportional to intrahepatic lipid content [13, 34–36].”
Brown Adipose Tissue Improves Whole-Body Glucose Homeostasis and Insulin Sensitivity in Humans (2014, methodology): “Whole-body insulin-stimulated glucose disposal was evaluated using the insulin sensitivity index (23) and the following formula: glucose disposal (in micromoles per kilogram per minutes)/ steady-state plasma glucose (in milligrams per deciliter) (24).”
Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) and Its Connection with Insulin Resistance, Dyslipidemia, Atherosclerosis and Coronary Heart Disease (2013, unknown): “Insulin resistant subjects with NAFLD show reduced insulin sensitivity not only at the level of the muscle but also at the level of the liver and adipose tissue [7,13,21].”
