Heterogeneity in Obesity: Genetic Basis and Metabolic Consequences.

abstract：PURPOSE OF REVIEW:The oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is used both in clinical practice and research to assess glucose tolerance. In addition, the OGTT is utilized for surrogate measures of insulin sensitivity and the insulin response to enteral glucose and has been widely applied in the evaluation of β-cell dysfunc...
