“…In PAM the fall of blood glucose after insulin administration is delayed and the GK response, in agreement with the data published by others [15,27], is reduced. The fact that GH response to arginine is also significantly lowered suggests that reduction of the hypoglycaemie response to insulin is not the factor causing the impaired GH secretion in the insulin tolerance test.…”

“…In order to clarify these findings and particularly to obtain a better understanding of carbohydrate metabolism in this condition we have undertaken a parallel study of insulin, glucagon and growth hormone levels in blood after provocative tests. To our knowledge few data have been reported by other authors on growth hormone [15,5,27] secretion and no data on glueagon levels in blood.…”
