Comparison of the Effect of 8-Hour, 10-Hour and 12-Hour Fasting on Blood Analytes Measurement such as on Glucose and Triglycerides among Male Subjects from Barangay Maharlika, San Jose Del Monte, Bulacan / Alyanna Antonio ; Joseph Balajadia ; Justine Grace Bardelosa ; Jose Amiel Calleja ; Gerromikelyn Canuto ; Jeanelle Esquival ; Renz Edward Gallarmen ; Jilliane Mae Mercado and Ramon Christopher Viliran. - Fairview, Quezon City School of Medical Technology, FEU-NRMF 2016 - 45 pages: illustrations, tables; 28 cm.

Fasting is a pre-requisite to measurement of some blood analytes, since "a blood test taken ... before you eat anything is a more accurate test" according to Dr. Rachel Hoad-Robson, the question then becomes what is the effect of shorter or longer fasting time on the measurement of certain blood analytes such as blood glucose and triglycerides level. This involved 25 male participants from Barangay Maharlika, San Jose Del Monte Bulacan. The respondents were selected via random sampling, which fasted for 8-hours prior to the first blood collection. Next another blood collection was done after 2 additional hours of fasting. Then, there was another collection of blood after 2 more hours of fasting. The blood samples taken were tested at Lab Pro Diagnostics Center located at San Jose Del Monte, Bulacan. All results were recorded then processed. The alternative hypothesis for this study is that the 2 hours shorter or longer fasting from the reference fasting time for each causes a shift in the value of blood glucose and triglyceride levels. And the null hypothesis is that the 2 hours shorter or longer fasting from the reference fasting does not cause any effect in the value of the blood glucose and triglyceride levels. The 8-hours and 10-hours fasting results served as baselines for the blood glucose, and the 10-hours and 12-hours fasting result served as baselines for the triglycerides. The research was limited to only healthy male individuals, and only the effect of fasting was considered in the results of the test.
