Concentrations of Glucagon and the Insulin: Glucagon Ratio in the Portal and Peripheral Circulation
Abstract
SummaryIn postoperative patients studied in the postabsorptive state by mean of an umbilical vein catheter, concentrations of glucagon and insulin in portal blood exceeded those in peripheral venous blood. However, the portal—peripheral gradient for insulin (1.8-4.0) was consistently greater than that observed for glucagon (1.1-1.5). Consequently, the insulin:glucagon (I/G) molar ratio in the portal vein was 100% higher than in peripheral blood. A direct linear correlation however, was observed between portal and peripheral I/G molar ratios. The data indicate that peripheral measurements underestimate the absolute ratio of insulin to glucagon in portal blood, but nevertheless provide an index of relative hormonal availability in the hepatic circulation.

Because the normal hepatic portal-to-peripheral venous insulin concentration ratio is ~2.5:1.0, the mild peripheral hyperinsulinemia during somatostatin with insulin likely produced portal hypoinsulinemia.
“Since the normal hepatic portal-to-peripheral venous insulin concentration ratio is ~2.5:1.0 (29–32), this mild peripheral hyper-nsn n s s sn ns linemia.”

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.
