Plasma glucose and insulin concentrations in the study associated with the infusion of insulin at 80 mU/m2/min.

Values are means ± SE and median (1st quartile—3rd quartile); Time 0, prior to the initiation of any infusions; Basal Period, infusion of saline (Control, N = 3) or branched-chain amino acids (BCAA, N = 4); Hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic Clamp, infusion of 80 mU/m2/min insulin together with variable rate of 20% dextrose to maintain the plasma glucose concentrations at those measured at the end of the Basal Period;*P ≤0.05 when compared to Time 0 and Basal Period&P = 0.09 when compared to Time 0 and Basal PeriodPlasma glucose and insulin concentrations in the study associated with the infusion of insulin at 80 mU/m2/min.
