The patients underwent two 3-h OGTTs and ingested 75 g of glucose each time. Before the two OGTT implementations, all patients stopped taking hypoglycemic drugs for 3 days. Glucose, insulin, and C-peptide levels were determined using venous blood specimens acquired at 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, and 180 min. Plasma glucose was examined using a standard laboratory procedure (Siemens ADVIA® 2400). Insulin levels and C-peptide concentrations were determined using chemiluminescent methods (Cobas e411; Roche, Switzerland).
