Insulin sensitivity and insulin clearance
| Insulin sensitivity (ml/min/m2) | Peripheral insulin clearance (ml/min/m2) | Endogenous insulin clearance (ml/min/m2) | Hepatic insulin extraction (%) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| *p<0.02 or less versus control subjects. †One cirrhotic patient with a negative value of hepatic insulin extraction (−13%) was excluded from the mean. With that subject included, hepatic insulin extraction was 51 (10), with no change in statistical significance. | ||||
| Controls | 296 (30) | 484 (13) | 1096 (86) | 54 (4) |
| Cirrhotic patients | 157 (10)* | 531 (10) | 1480 (299) | 59 (6)† |
