Table 5 Glucose oxidation in septic patients and volunteers
From: Influence of insulin on glucose metabolism and energy expenditure in septic patients
Parameter | Septic patients | Volunteers | Significance (between groups)1 |
|---|---|---|---|
Glucose oxidation in step 1 | 2.82 (1.66–4.02) | 3.4 (3.00–4.00) | - |
Glucose oxidation in step 2 | 3.73 (2.73–4.97) | 4.5 (4.30–5.65) | - |
Significance (within groups)2: step 1 versus step 2 | P < 0.01 | P < 0.01 | - |
Difference between step 2 and step 1 | 0.71 (-0.26–0.72) | 1.22 (0.30–1.75) | NS |
