Table 1. Plasma levels of key counterregulatory hormones in hypoglycemia.
Data is shown as percent reduction in catecholamine and hormone levels in hyperoxic hypoglycemia vs normoxic conditions.
Catecholamines and Counterregulatory Hormones | Percent Reduction in Hyperoxia From Normoxia Plasma Levels (%) |
---|---|
Norepinephrine | −50.7 ± 5.2%* |
Epinephrine | −62.6 ± 3.3%* |
Glucagon | −48.6 ± 2.1%* |
Growth Hormone | −53.1 ± 2.7%* |
Cortisol | −63.2 ± 2.1%* |
