Human HOMA insulin-resistance index during fructose loading

Species, exposure, manipulation and evidence limits are specified on each linked claim.

1 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.

How nutrients influence it

Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.

How nutrients reach it in more than one step

Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What acts on it

  1. Allopurinol did not reduce the HOMA insulin-resistance index during the fructose-loading trial.

    Experimental context and source evidence
    dose
    200 g fructose/day with or without allopurinol; drug dose not recovered in accessed abstract
    duration
    2 weeks
    evidence_access
    Primary abstract/metadata; unrecovered methods explicitly retained.
    evidence_scope
    literature_reviewed; source-specific curation
    experimental_model
    74 adult men in randomized fructose-loading intervention
    exposure_scope
    Isolated fructose / drug perturbation
    limitations
    Very high pure-fructose dose; allopurinol did not correct every outcome. Pharmacological rescue does not prove sole mediation by urate or justify treatment of ordinary HFCS intake.
