However, in all patients except one, blood glucose concentration at 2 hours was higher than the respective fasting glucose concentration. All but two of the patients (one of whom was diabetic) showed fasting and post glucose hyperinsulinism. All the patients had hepatic dysfunction of varying severity. It is hence suggested that the initial disturbance of carbohydrate metabolism in transfusional siderosis is insulin resistance, similar to that found in chronic liver disease. Overt diabetes is probably a later event, occurring when sufficient damage to pancreatic cells has occurred and appropriate hyperinsulinaemia cannot be sustained.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/000456328302000203","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,5]],"date-time":"2014-02-05T16:57:08Z","timestamp":1391619428000},"page":"77-79","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":80,"title":["Insulin Resistance and Iron Overload"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"P","family":"Dandona","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Metabolic Unit, Department of Chemical Pathology, and Departments of Haematology, Nephrology and Paediatrics, Royal Free Hospital and School of Medicine, London NW3 2QG, UK; and Hellenic Red Cross, Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M A M","family":"Hussain","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Metabolic Unit, Department of Chemical Pathology, and Departments of Haematology, Nephrology and Paediatrics, Royal Free Hospital and School of Medicine, London NW3 2QG, UK; and Hellenic Red Cross, Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Z","family":"Varghese","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Metabolic Unit, Department of Chemical Pathology, and Departments of Haematology, Nephrology and Paediatrics, Royal Free Hospital and School of Medicine, London NW3 2QG, UK; and Hellenic Red Cross, Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"D","family":"Politis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Metabolic Unit, Department of Chemical Pathology, and Departments of Haematology, Nephrology and Paediatrics, Royal Free Hospital and School of Medicine, London NW3 2QG, UK; and Hellenic Red Cross, Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"D M","family":"Flynn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Metabolic Unit, Department of Chemical Pathology, and Departments of Haematology, Nephrology and Paediatrics, Royal Free Hospital and School of Medicine, London NW3 2QG, UK; and Hellenic Red Cross, Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"A V","family":"Hoffbrand","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Metabolic Unit, Department of Chemical Pathology, and Departments of Haematology, Nephrology and Paediatrics, Royal Free Hospital and School of Medicine, London NW3 2QG, UK; and Hellenic Red Cross, Athens, Greece"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1983,3,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-000456328302000203","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/adc.51.11.828"},{"key":"bibr2-000456328302000203","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(77)91652-X"},{"key":"bibr3-000456328302000203","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1210\/jcem-28-6-805"},{"key":"bibr4-000456328302000203","first-page":"102","volume":"70","author":"Toccafondi R","year":"1970","journal-title":"Riv Clin Med."},{"key":"bibr5-000456328302000203","first-page":"197","volume":"34","author":"Zuppinger K","year":"1979","journal-title":"Helvet Paediatr Acta"}],"container-title":["Annals of Clinical Biochemistry: International Journal of Laboratory Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/000456328302000203","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/000456328302000203","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,28]],"date-time":"2026-04-28T11:28:00Z","timestamp":1777375680000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/000456328302000203"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[1983,3]]},"references-count":5,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-print":{"date-parts":[[1983,3]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/000456328302000203"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/000456328302000203","relation":{},"ISSN":["0004-5632","1758-1001"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0004-5632","type":"print"},{"value":"1758-1001","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[1983,3]]}}}
