title: [Serum insulin concentration, basal and during an standardized oral glucose tolerance test in healthy children (author's transl)].
abstract: Serum insulin concentration was measured, basal and during an standardized oral glucose tolerance test in 110 healthy children. The patients are divided in four groups according to their pediatric ages. The method used to measure serum insulin was a radioimmunoassay and the glucose by oxidative enzymatic procedures. The calculations of the results has been made with log-conversion in order to follow a normal log distribution of the data. Glucose, insuline areas and some insulinogenic index (ratio) are made as well. And relations of multiple correlations. With our results we can conclude: There is a general tendency in all our cases to low values of insulin most marcate in the fasting levels. We defined like hiposecretor the 4.1% of all our patients. The existence of a positive correlation between insuline-age in fasting determinations as well as in overload test.
