3. Figure 2
Relationship between artificial recirculation (RA%) and glucose increase (B – A) in vitro (N = 30). The regression equation calculates RA percentage from (B – A) values (y = 0.046x ; r = 0.99).

4. Figure 3
Linear regression between recirculation measured with the urea test (ARUT) and glucose increase (B – A) with GIT (N = 56; y = 0.048x + 1.3; r = 0.93).

5. Figure 4
Comparison of paired tests (GIT and UT) in 17 patients. The better reproducibility (GIT1 = GIT2) gives Δ results (GIT1 – GIT2) near to zero. Symbols are: (▪) Δ GIT%; (□) Δ UT%.
