3. Figure 2
Mean (± standard error) endogenous glucose production (A) and exogenous glucose infusion rate (M value and M value/insulin levels) (B) during hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp study in hepatitis C subjects and controls and genotype 1 and 3. *P < .001; **These have been log transformed (Ln) prior to analysis. EGP data presented in 11 controls and 27 CHC subjects. M value at low-dose insulin presented in 14 controls and 29 CHC subjects, M value at high-dose insulin presented in 15 controls and 29 CHC subjects. P = .25 (NS) for % suppression EGP in controls vs chronic hepatitis C subjects. Basal EGP significantly lower in hepatitis C subjects compared to controls (P = .04), but not significantly different at low-dose insulin clamp (P = .85). EGP at high-dose insulin not shown as was not significantly different from zero in all groups.
