Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
difference in the increment in area under the curve (AUC) for insulin to intraduodenal glucose between 4 treatments, above that predicted from the slope of the curve prior to intraduodenal glucose.[t = 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 105, 110, 115, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170, 180, 190, 200, 210, 220, 230, 240, 250, 260, 270 min. t = 0 is when intraluminal catheter is correctly positioned and the hyperglycaemic clamp starts and t = 90 min is when intraduodenal glucose starts.]
