(a) Plasma glucose concentrations during the clamp. Microvascular recruitment was assessed through CEU imaging at basal plasma insulin levels (t = −10min) and at hyperphysiological insulin levels (t = 30min). (b) Plasma insulin concentrations before and during the clamp. The time intervals used to compute the insulin measures are indicated as “basal” for Ip,basal, concentration before the start of the clamp, as “priming” for Ip,priming, concentration during the insulin priming, and as “ss” for Ip,ss, concentration at steady-state of the clamp. All concentrations are shown as mean ± SD (n = 17).
