CI confidence interval, early 50% tRmax time to half-maximal glucose infusion rate before maximum glucose infusion rate, Gtot total amount of glucose infused over the duration of the clamp, Gtot,0–1h Gtot over 1 h, Gtot,0–30min Gtot over 30 min, Gtot,4h–End Gtot 4 h to end of clamp, late 50% tRmax time to half-maximal infusion rate after maximum glucose infusion rate, LSM least squares mean, Rmax maximum glucose infusion rate, Tonset time to onset of insulin action, tRmax time to maximum glucose infusion rate

ap value is for the treatment difference in LSM. For all other values, the p value is for the ratio of geometric LS mean
