Hyperglycemia reduces free fatty acid (FFA) turnover by 30% (29 +/- 2 vs. 20 +/- 3 mumol.kg fat mass-1.min-1, P less than 0.05).
Practitioners should consider that elevated glucose levels can significantly impact lipid metabolism.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
FFA turnover, which represents the difference between lipolysis and FFA reesterification, was reduced 30% by hyperglycemia (29 +/- 2 vs. 20 +/- 3 mumol.kg fat mass-1.min-1, P less than 0.05).
Why this rating
The study involves controlled clamps and measurements of turnover rates.
