Exercise Metabolism in Nonobese Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Following the Acute Restoration of Normoglycaemia

Figure 2

Plasma FFA (a) and blood lactate (b) concentrations during the INS and CON trials. Data represent n = 6, mean ± SEM. (a) At rest, there were significant time () and interaction () effects, where plasma FFA were suppressed in INS. During exercise, there was a significant time effect () and a trend () for an interaction effect, where plasma FFA in INS increased to greater extent than that in CON. (b) At rest, there was no significant effect of the insulin infusion or time on blood lactate, although there was a significant interaction effect (). During exercise, there were significant time () and interaction () effects, where the blood lactate response was lower in INS than that in CON. from CON; from CON.
