    This document summarizes the results of a lab experiment on measuring plasma glucose levels. It includes pre-lab quiz results, experimental data showing glucose measurements from blood samples, post-lab quiz results scoring 33%, and unanswered review sheet questions. The data shows glucose levels ranging from 30 to 150 mg/dL and some patients' levels in the diabetic range while others were normal or borderline impaired.

    Post-lab Quiz Results
    You scored 33% by answering 2 out of 6 questions correctly.

    1. A male patient has had successive fasting plasma glucose readings of 115, 110, and 122 mg/dl. The healthcare provider
    will inform him that
    Your answer: a. he has developed diabetes and needs to adopt lifestyle changes.
    Correct answer: c. he appears to have impairment or borderline impairment of insulin-mediated glucose uptake by his cells.

    2. To obtain an accurate spectrophotometric measurement of the glucose concentration in the sample


    Your answer: c. an enzymatic color reagent is added that digests and, thus, removes blood clots.
    Correct answer: d. heparin is added to prevent blood clots.

    3. In the spectrophotometric assay used in this experiment, the __________ as the glucose concentration in the sample
    increases.
    Your answer: c. optical density remains constant
    Correct answer: b. optical density increases

    4. A female patient has had successive fasting plasma glucose readings of 130, 140, and 128 mg/dl. The healthcare
    provider will inform her that
    You correctly answered: a. she has developed diabetes.

    5. To maintain plasma glucose homeostasis


    Your answer: c. cells will become unresponsive to insulin if plasma glucose levels are chronically low.
    Correct answer: d. insulin-mediated transport of glucose into cells acts as negative feedback when plasma glucose levels
    rise.

    6. A laboratory technician withdraws a blood sample from a vein in your upper arm knowing that
    You correctly answered: b. the plasma glucose concentration will be the same in both the arm vein and the index finger.

    2. Which patient(s) had glucose reading(s) in the diabetic range? Can you say with certainty whether each of these
    patients has type 1 or type 2 diabetes? Why or why not?
    You did not answer this question.

    3. Describe the diagnosis for patient 3, who was also pregnant at the time of this assay.
    You did not answer this question.

    4. Which patient(s) had normal glucose reading(s)?


    You did not answer this question.

    5. What are some lifestyle choices these patients with normal plasma glucose readings might recommend to the borderline
    impaired patients?
