Glucose and xylitol were administered intravenously to man and several mammals in the same doses, and the plasma insulin responses were compared. Marked species differences were found. In man, 12g or 30g of glucose produced definitely greater rises of plasma insulin than xylitol. In cows and goats, both 0.2g/kg glucose and xylitol increased plasma insulin markedly and to a similar extent. Plasma insulin responses of horses to 0.2g/kg glucose and xylitol were rather sluggish and poor. In rabbits, the peak insulin levels following 0.2 g/kg glucose and xylitol were approximately similar or slightly higher after glucose, but with the dose of 1, 0g/kg, the peak plasma insulin value after xylito was a little higher than after glucose. In rats, glucose produced higher insulin peaks than xylitol both at the doses of 0.2g/kg and 1.0g/kg. These results are in contrast to the results obtained in dogs, in which xylitol has a definitely stronger insulin-releasing effect than glucose. The cause for this species variation is not explained at present.

Aim: In 2003, the American Diabetes Association recommended that the threshold for diagnosing impaired fasting glucose (IFG) should be lowered from 6.1 mmol/L (110 mg/dL) to 5.6 mmol/L (100 mg/dL). To discuss the diagnostic threshold for IFG, the association between fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and the risk of future diabetes must be known; however, data regarding this relation in the Japanese population are scarce. The aim of this study was to determine the relation between FPG and the risk of future diabetes in the Japanese general population.Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted using data from annual health check-ups performed in Omiya city. A total of 11,369 subjects between the ages of 40-79 years who were not dia-betic at baseline were followed for seven years. Diabetes was defined as FPG ≥126 mg/dL or self-report.Results: The incidence of diabetes increased as the baseline FPG level increased and a similar pattern was observed irrespective of sex or age. The hazard ratios compared with subjects with FPG <85 mg/ dL adjusted for possible confounding factors were 3.83 (95% confidence interval (95% CI); 2.41-6.08) for subjects with 100 to 104 mg/dL FPG and 7.97 (95% CI; 4.98-12.4) for subjects with 105 to 109 mg/dL FPG.Conclusions: Subjects with 100-109 mg/dL FPG have an appreciable risk of diabetes that cannot be considered as “normal” and should be notified of their potential risk of developing diabetes.
