Insulin dosage and glucose-6-phosphatase activity
|
Insulin (units/kg/h postnatal life × 103) |
Vmax(nmol/min/mg) | p Value |
| 0 (n=22) | 76 (12) | |
| <10 (n=6) | 134 (38) | 0.06 |
| 10–15 (n=4) | 145 (25) | 0.03 |
| 15+ (n=4) | 222 (46) | 0.0002 |
-
Results are mean (SE).
-
p Values, for comparison of result with that for infants receiving no insulin treatment, were calculated with Student'st test using the Instat program for Macintosh computers.
