Glycerol turnover, representing lipolysis, is also reduced by hyperglycemia (9.4 +/- 0.9 vs. 6.2 +/- 0.7 mumol.kg fat mass-1.min-1, P less than 0.05).
Elevated glucose levels can inhibit lipolysis, affecting fat metabolism.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Glycerol turnover, which represents lipolysis only, was reduced to a similar extent (9.4 +/- 0.9 vs. 6.2 +/- 0.7 mumol.kg fat mass-1.min-1, P less than 0.05).
Why this rating
The study employs rigorous measurement techniques.
