Title: Studies on the Effect of Hyperthyroidism on the Insulin Response to Hyperglycemia in the Dog
Abstract: We studied the effect of hyperthyroidism on the insulin response to hyperglycemia in the dog during a standard oral (OGTT) and intravenous (IVGTT) glucose tolerance test. The development of the hyperthyroid condition was elicited through chronic subcutaneous 1-thyroxin treatment at one of the following doses: 0.5 and 100 γ/kg body weight/day, for 10-12 days. Blood sugar and serum immunoreactive insulin (IRI) were measured.
