title: Recovery mechanisms from acute hypoglycaemia in complete tetraplegia.
abstract: Acute hypoglycaemia has been achieved in tetraplegic subjects and in healthy controls using insulin. The recovery from hypoglycaemia has been followed by measuring appropriate substrate levels in blood. Abnormal responses of lactate and free fatty acid concentrations were observed; blood glucose recovery proceeded at a normal rate.
