estimate the first phase peak insulin secretion rate for type 2 diabetes patients after administration of the byetta bolus
Added by Edward B.
Step 1
- Measurement units: typically µU/mL/min for ISR or pmol/L/s for SI units, depending on your model. - Time window: first-phase response is the initial rapid insulin release following glucose stimulus, usually within minutes to about 15–30 minutes after dosing. Show more…

Suppose that for a particular patient, measured plasma glucose level two hours after ingesting 75g of glucose varies according to the Normal distribution with a mean ÎĽ = 8mmol/L and a standard deviation = 0.6mmol/L. If a single glucose measurement is made, what is the probability that this diagnostic criteria will be satisfied? For full marks, provide a correct probability statement, including definitions of any variables used, distributions used including all parameters, all working out and appropriate Minitab output.

Insulin was infused into the antecubital vein of a healthy human subject whose GFR is 125 ml/min. The insulin was infused at a steady rate of 75 mg/min, and periodically blood was withdrawn for the determination of the plasma insulin concentration, Pin. Pin reached a steady-state value of 0.6 mg/ml after 120 min. Calculate the urinary excretion of insulin in mg/min at this time. Show the calculation procedure that you used and explain the validity of using insulin in this manner.
