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).
