Homeostasis model assessment and blood glucose levels on admission in shock non-survivors, shock survivors, and sepsis survivors. (a) Homeostatis model assessment of insulin sensitivity (HOMA-%S). The vertical, x-axis reference line represents the limit for normoglycemia (8.3 mmol/L). The horizontal, y-axis reference line represents 50% of maximum insulin sensitivity. (b) Homeostatis model assessment of β-cell function (HOMA-%B). The vertical, x-axis reference line represents the limit for normoglycemia (8.3 mmol/L). The horizontal, y-axis reference line represents 50% of maximum β-cell function.
