Title: Study on true insulin levels in healthy population
Abstract: Objective To establish true insulin(TI) normal reference range in healthy crowd for helping to study the changes in insulin induced endocrinic diseases.Methods 600 cases of healthy controls,of which 300 males as the male group,300 women as the female group,aged 16-40 years old as the low age group,age 40-60 years as high old age group.At 8:00 3 mL fasting venous blood was collected.Using radioimmunoassay(RIA) and chemiluminescence method for determination of insulin.Results Insulin level in normal group for insulin RIA method was(121.18±39.5) pmol/L,for the TI chemiluminescence(33.00±19.06) pmol/L,there was a statistical difference(P0.01).TI for the male group was(34.22±20.89) pmol /L,for female group(32.12 ± 16.84) pmol/L with no significant difference in sexes(P0.05).TI for the low age group was(32.15 ± 18.68) pmol/L,for the high-age group,TI was(33.32±18.67) pmol/L with no siatistical difference in age(P 0.05).Conclusion Healthy male TI range of normal reference values is(9.08-95.34) pmol/L;the healthy women TI range of normal reference values is(12.35-92.78) pmol/L.TI determination can analyse islet β-cell function more accurately.
