Example sentences for: pima

How can you use “pima” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Although significant linkages were identified at the FABP2 locus with fasting insulin concentration (p = 0.0004) and with glucose uptake (p = 0.0008) in the Pima Indians [ 5], the differences regarding the A54T polymorphism with fasting insulin concentrations (p < 0.04) and glucose uptake (p < 0.04) were only marginally significant in the same population [ 9].

  • In addition to the original positive association between the A54T polymorphism and fasting plasma insulin concentration, fasting fat oxidation and glucose uptake in non-diabetic Pima Indians [ 9], positive association was also found with obesity [ 13, 14], 2-hour post-challenged insulin concentration [ 14], and various lipid metabolism [ 13, [ 28 29 30 ] ]. In the present study, we also demonstrated a positive quantitative association between this polymorphism and %S.

  • Subsequently, the A54T polymorphism was identified and was found to be associated with increased fatty acid binding protein, increased fat oxidation and increased insulin resistance in the Pima Indians [ 9].

  • Disagreement also occurred in the original Pima Indian study.

  • MNS red cell antigens, one of the few genetic markers available at that time, were initially found to be linked to insulin resistance in 86 non-diabetic Pima Indians from 31 nuclear families using a sib-pair analysis and they were also associated with insulin resistance in 132 non-diabetic Pima Indians [ 4].
