Correlations Between the Percentage Change of Plasma Amino Acid Concentrations and Insulin Resistance Measured by GDR During the Baseline Hyperinsulinemic Euglycemic Clamp Study
| Amino Acids | r Values | P Values |
|---|---|---|
| Leucine | 0.720 | < .008 |
| Phenylalanine | 0.063 | .846 |
| BCAAs | 0.538 | .071 |
| TAAs | 0.105 | .746 |
BCAA, branched chain amino acids; GDR, glucose disposal rate; TAA, total amino acids.
The correlation coefficients were performed by Spearman correlation analysis (r).
