Intravenous Glucose Tolerance Test in an Industrial Population: Controls, Subjects with Coronary Heart Disease and Relatives of Diabetics

Intravenous glucose tolerance was measured in a population of industrial workers who were participating in a prospective study to assess the importance of various factors contributing to the development of coronary heart disease. No significant differences in intravenous glucose tolerance could be detected between groups of control subjects, subjects with a close diabetic relative, or subjects with coronary heart disease.
