Figure 1 Parameters measured during the 1st oral glucose tolerance test in normal weight patients, overweight patients and obese patients.
A: Mean glucose concentrations; B: Mean insulin concentrations; C: Mean C-peptide concentrations. aP < 0.05, overweight vs normal weight; bP < 0.01, obese vs overweight; cP < 0.001, obese vs normal weight. OGTT: Oral glucose tolerance test.
Figure 2 Parameters measured during the 2nd oral glucose tolerance test in normal weight patients, overweight patients and obese patients.
A: Mean glucose concentrations; B: Mean insulin concentrations; C: Mean C-peptide concentrations. aP < 0.05, overweight vs normal weight; cP < 0.001, obese vs normal weight. OGTT: Oral glucose tolerance test.
Figure 3 Comparison between parameters measured during the 1st and 2nd oral glucose tolerance test in normal weight patients.
A: Mean glucose concentrations; B: Mean insulin concentrations; C: Mean C-peptide concentrations. aP < 0.05, 2nd vs 1st. OGTT: Oral glucose tolerance test.
Figure 4 Comparison between parameters measured during the 1st and 2nd oral glucose tolerance test in overweight patients.
A: Mean glucose concentrations; B: Mean insulin concentrations; C: Mean C-peptide concentrations. aP < 0.05, 2nd vs 1st. OGTT: Oral glucose tolerance test.
Figure 5 Comparison between parameters measured during the 1st and 2nd oral glucose tolerance test in obese patients.
A: Mean glucose concentrations; B: Mean insulin concentrations; C: Mean C-peptide concentrations in obese patients during the 1st and 2nd oral glucose tolerance test. OGTT: Oral glucose tolerance test.
