These flavonoids improve GLUT-4 expression and translocation to plasma membrane by activation of insulin-sensitive PI3K/Akt signaling and insulin-independent AMPK, SIRT-1 and MOR activation pathways for regulation of glucose homeostasis, and improve fat oxidation and reduce lipid synthesis by regulation of related genes for lipid homeostasis in…[Read more]

Results Compared to atraumatic PSI, traumatic PSI was more prevalent in men (84.4% vs 61.9%, p=0.031), and tended to have fewer pain symptoms (15.8% vs 23.8%, n.s).
