An Evaluation of Growth Hormone and IGF-1 Responses in Neonates with Hyperinsulinaemic Hypoglycaemia

Table 2

Hormone responses in neonates with HH during the episode of hypoglycaemia.

	Mean	SEM (±)	Normal range
Glucose (mmol/L)	2.2	0.09	4–8 mmol/L
Insulin (mU/L)	11.9	2.12	<1.0 (during hypoglycaemia)
Growth hormone (μg/L)	12.5	1.53	16.4–20.0*
IGF-1 (ng/mL)	29.2	7.8	90–110*
IGFBP3 (mg/L)	1.21	0.13	1.8–2.2*
Cortisol (nmol/L)	201	33	450
NEFA (mmol/L)	0.28	0.05	Depends on the duration of fast
3-betahydroxybutyrate (mmol/L)	0.05	0.003	Depends on the duration of fast
