The average levels of saliva glucose for each group (DM patient/control and stimulated/unstimulated).

Glucose Levels (mM)	SWS	UWS	SPS	UPS	SSS	USS
Patients (n = 40)	1.53 ± 0.63	2.42 ± 0.66	1.84 ± 0.64	2.89 ± 0.76 **	1.79 ± 0.63	2.58 ± 0.52
Controls (n = 40)	1.42 ± 0.60 *	1.43 ± 0.40	1.50 ± 0.53	1.49 ± 0.49	1.54 ± 0.54	1.82 ± 0.31

** Maximum level of saliva glucose. * Minimum level saliva glucose. UWS: unstimulated whole saliva, SWS: stimulated whole saliva, USS: unstimulated sublingual/submandibular saliva, SSS: stimulated sublingual/submandibular saliva, SPS: stimulated parotid saliva, UPS: unstimulated parotid saliva.
