1Trained subjects show mean BG both before and after training. No training refers to subjects kept as control (ctrl).
2Mean ± SD of mean diary of 21 preprandial BG in a week in mg/dL, present investigation, subchapter 2.
341 of 55 adults with mixed body mass index (BMI) and mean BG > 81.8 mg/ dL at recruitment who significantly decreased mean BG after training “recognizing hunger”.
441 of 55 HBG infants of 73 recruited because of chronic diarrhea, who showed arm skin-fold thickness on 15th percentile of normal reference. They significantly decreased mean BG from > 81.1 mg/dL the level at recruitment. Further 18 of 73 diarrheic infants appear in the third line.
