Relation between glucose tolerance and serum insulin levels in man before and after thiopental intravenous administration
A glucose tolerance test was performed in a number of healthy volunteers before and after a single dose of intravenous sodium thiopental. During this test, serum insulin levels were determined at similar intervals. A small but significant decrease in glucose tolerance, not related to serum insulin levels, was seen
Serum cholinesterase levels in patients with cancer
Serum cholinesterase levels were determined in 180 patients with carcinoma and in 146 normal subjects. Serum cholinesterase activity was significantly lower in patients suffering from cancer than in normal controls, although still within the normal range. The degree of depression of serum cholinesterase activity was influenced by the extent to which the malignancy had spread and by the site of the primary lesion
