Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Blood glucose concentrations measured from capillary blood using HemoGue Glucose 201 DM analyser (units = mmol/L), measured at -5 min, 0 min, 15 min, 30 min, 45 min, 60 min, 90 min, 120 min, 150 min, 180 min 2. Blood glucose incremental area under curve (iAUC) calculated from blood glucose concentrations using the trapezoid rule (units = mmol/L/min), measured at 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 min 3. Peak blood glucose calculated from blood glucose curves (see above) (units = mmol/L) 4. Time of peak blood glucose calculated from blood glucose curves (see above) (units = minutes) | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Plasma insulin concentration measured from capillary blood using electrochemiluminescence immunoassay using automated analyzer (Cobas E411) (units = µU/mL) at -5 min, 0 min, 15 min, 30 min, 45 min, 60 min, 90 min, 120 min, 150 min, 180 min 2. Plasma insulin iAUC calculated from plasma insulin concentrations using the trapezoid rule (units = µU/mL/min), measured at 60, 90, 120, 150, and 180 min | — |
