Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether attenuationnormalization of elevated blood sugar after meals ameliorates vessel wall endothelial function in individuals with insulin resistance
Detailed Description: BackgroundInsulin Resistance IR is accompanied by a high incidence and prevalence of cardiovascular disease IR is present in individuals with pre-diabetes type 2 diabetes Epidemiological data demonstrate a tight relationship between postprandial blood sugar insulin resistance and cardiovascular disease CVD Endothelial dysfunction seems to be the very first sign of CVD

Purpose We propose to determine whether attenuation normalization of post-prandial hyperglycaemia through the administration of an oral hypoglycaemic agent of ultra rapid action nateglinide ameliorates endothelial function in the IR

We extrapolate that a better endothelial function in the brachial artery reflects regression of atherosclerotic changes in the coronary system

Method and Study Design Prospective open parallel group comparison study of 1 intervention group 1 intervention control group and 1 disease control group The intervention group and the intervention control group each consist of 30 individuals with IR Individuals in the intervention group receive an individually adjusted dose of nateglinide 3 times daily during 12 weeks The third group consists of 10 healthy young individuals All groups are followed during 3 months with an otherwise unchanged lifestyle Endothelial function is measured with the Flow Mediated Dilation method before and after the interventionobservation period
