Figure 1. Simultaneous effect of fetal plasma glucose and insulin concentrations on fetal glucose oxidation rate.

Figure 1

A, three-dimensional plot of individual values of CO2 production from glucose carbon oxidation at different fetal plasma concentrations of glucose and insulin. B, predicted three-dimensional glucose by insulin surface. Data obtained in near-term fetal sheep (Hay et al. 1989).
