Percent of the rate of phenylalanine disposal (Rd) (equal to the rate of appearance, Ra, at steady-state) used for protein synthesis (PS), in the control group (left bar), in the T2DM subjects with normoalbuminuria (T2DM [AER-]) (middle bar), and in the in the T2DM subjects with either micro- or macro-albuminuria (T2DM [AER+] (right bar). The p value on top of the bars in the figure denotes the level of significance of the difference vs. the control group (by One-Way ANOVA and Fisher’s post hoc tests).
