  • Title: [Plasma insulin and GH during oral glucose load in liver cirrhosis].
    Author: Greco AV, Ghirlanda G, Altomonte L, Manna R, Rebuzzi AG.
    Journal: Minerva Med; 1976 Jul 21; 67(35):2266-72. PubMed ID: 951048.
    Abstract:
    Blood sugar, insulin and GH values were examined in two groups of cirrhosis of the liver patients, with and without ascites, after the administration of 100 g glucose per os. No significant differences between the two groups were observed. Insulin values were higher than those in the controls, with a pattern similar to that noted in subjects with chemical diabetes. GH values were higher than in normal subjects and secretion was not suppressed.
