AUCbaseline_c (0-180 min): Baseline-corrected area under the curve from 0 to 180 min; AUC(0-180 min): Area under the curve from 0 to 180 min; iAUC(0-180 min): Incremental AUC(0-180 min), i.e., area above baseline levels of blood glucose concentration; Cmax: Maximum blood glucose concentration; Max_increase: Maximum blood glucose concentration minus baseline value; LS mean: Adjusted least square mean obtained from analysis of covariance model.
