What is the content of the protocol of the test, how much glucose should be given, pre-test, post-test and issues to be considered during testing are explained.16, 17, 19, 9A, D, E, G
11.Metabolic and hormonal arrangements in the organism are described in order to keep blood sugar between the reference values. The relationship between the amount of glucose taken after entering the cell and the amount of glucose taken with the diet, the importance of fatty acids in metabolic control, the mechanism of action of all hormones that are effective against insulin and insulin, and how they are reflected in the clinic are explained.16, 17, 19, 9A, D, E, G
12.Liver function tests, liver failure, liver dysfunction and liver disease, diagnosis, prognosis and prognosis are used for the purpose of diagnosis. The importance of liver parenchymal cells and the ability to regenerate are given. Tests and examples of liver function tests are explained. The meaning of liver damage, liver dysfunction and cholestasis tests are shown with examples.16, 17, 19, 9A, D, E, G
