Figure 2 GIR FGU and forearm glucose metabolism after an intravenous administration of 0.1 U/kg of insulin in 13 CSX patients (circles), in 9 MSX subjects (squares) and in 13 normal controls (triangles). Histograms represent {Delta}AUCs for the different parameters in CSX patients (filled bars), in MSX subjects (hatched bars) and in normal controls (open bars). Date are means ± SE. GIR = glucose infusion rate; FGU = forearm glucose uptake; FGOx = forearm glucose oxidation. *p < 0.05 vs. normal controls; {dagger}p < 0.05 vs. CSX patients.
