The effect of glucagon on plasma cyclic AMP and glucose concentrations in patients with alcoholic cirrhosis.
Glucagon was infused intravenously into four patients with alcoholic cirrhosis and five healthy subjects and serial measurements were made of plasma cyclic AMP and glucose concentrations. The results in the cirrhotic patients did not differ significantly from those in healthy subjects.
