Hyperglycaemia and apoptosis of microglial cells in human septic shock

Table 3 Association of neuronal GLUT4 and microglial GLUT5 expression with glycaemia and cell apoptosis

Spearman ρ (95% CI)	Neuronal GLUT4 expression	P	Microglial GLUT5 expression	P
Area under the BG curve > 2 g/l	-0.006 (-0.49 to 0.48)	0.98	0.03 (-0.46 to 0.50)	0.91
Neuronal apoptosis	-0.29 (-0.68 to 0.22)	0.25	-0.40 (-0.74 to 0.10)	0.11
Microglial apoptosis	-0.002(-0.48 to 0.48)	0.99	-0.25 (-0.65 to 0.26)	0.33

Each neuropathological finding was score from 0 to 3 (see methods). BG, blood glucose; GLUT, glucose transporter.
