“…In studies using the isolated, perfused rat pancreas, acetylcholine induced a prompt release of insulin [57], and direct vagal stimulation resulted in a release of insulin [58,59]. Several studies [60][61][62][63] have demonstrated that after SPV or SGV plus P, basal serum insulin levels and the postprandial insulin output were not changed. After TV, the insulin response to an oral glucose tolerance test or a test meal was either diminished [60,62] or unchanged [61,63,64].…”
