Abstract

The sequence of events that follows the intra-venous injection of insulin has been reviewed ex-tensively by De Bodo and Altszuler (1). A com-plex set of mechanisms normally operates to an-tagonize the action of insulin, thereby limiting the extent to which the blood glucose falls and causing a rapid return to original levels. There is evi-dence that glucocorticoids and growth hormone play an important role as hormonal insulin an-tagonists. Thus both Addison's disease and hypo-pituitarism are known to be associated with in-creased insulin sensitivity, whereas patients with Cushing's syndrome or acromegaly are resistant to its hypoglycemic action (2, 3). The observa-tion that the intravenous injection of insulin into control subjects results in rapid elevations of plasma cortisol (4, 5) and growth hormone (6-9) also supports the possible physiologic importance of these hormones as insulin antagonists. Since the release of these two hormones depends on ade-quate hypothalamic as well as pituitary and adrenal function (5, 7, 10), it was apparent that a rapid test of both the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal axis for the secretion of cortisol and the hy-pothalamo-pituitary axis for the secretion of growth hormone could be developed with insulin-induced hypoglycemia as a stimulus. The present paper describes the time sequence of the changes in plasma sugar, free fatty acids (FFA), cortisol, and growth hormone in normal * Submitted for publication September 21, 1965; ac-

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
