Insulinopenic diabetes in Africa.
The high proportion of unrefined carbohydrates (maize meal) in the diet of Africans could be responsible for their low insulin secretion. The consequent insulinopenia in the general African population may explain the comparative rarity of typical non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, and also the virtual absence of coronary heart disease. Changes in growth hormone secretion and in serum lipids, known to be associated with diabetes in Europeans, are also found in African patients.

Biological Assay↗
Changes in glucose tolerance and serum insulin following partial gastrectomy and intestinal resection.
Partial gastrectomy and intestinal resection significantly impaired glucose tolerance (p < 0.05) and significantly decreased the release of insulin by intravenous glucose (p < 0.05) or a meal of minced beef (p < 0.01). There was a significantly greater release of insulin one hour after oral glucose in the gastrectomy patients (p < 0.05).
