The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the overall
changes in concentration of plasma pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP), red blood cell PLP (rbc
PLP) and plasma glucose during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) in persons with
diabetes mellitus (DM), and to test the hypothesis that the...
The status of vitamin B-6 (B6) nutriture of nine
persons (4F;5M) with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus
(IDDM), nine persons (5F;4M) with non-insulin dependent
diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), and 18 control individuals
(9F;9M) was evaluated, using biochemical and dietary
indicators of B6 status. The biochemical indices employed
were plasma concentration of pyridoxal...
The purpose of this study was to measure plasma B-6 vitamers, and other factors which may affect the plasma concentrations of these vitamers under extreme physical conditions. Blood samples were drawn from 8 men and 3 women (43.7 ± 8.6 years) 30 minutes prior to the start of a 50-km...
Trained male cyclists (6 in study 1, 5 in study 2) cycled to exhaustion (EXH) at
75% of VO₂ max twice; once in the non-supplemented (NS) state and once in the vitamin
B-6 (B-6)(20 mg PN) supplemented (S) state. The diet contained 2.3 mg B-6 in study 1
and 1.9...
The effect of a 9—month nutrition education and walking program on
energy need, body composition, nutrient intake, nutritional status,
aerobic fitness, and health risk factors was determined in 7 women with
childhood—onset obesity (CO) and 8 women with adult—onset obesity (AO).
Data were collected before and after the 9—month program...
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of extreme exercise on vitamin B-6
metabolism and urea nitrogen. Nine men and five women completed two 5-day trials; Trial 1
(T1) included a 50-km ultramarathon on day 4 and during Trial 2 (T2) subjects were "inactive"
on day 4....
