Fig. 2: Glucose tolerance test in animals refed for 7–8 days on a low-fat or high-fat diets.

From: Countering impaired glucose homeostasis during catch-up growth with essential polyunsaturated fatty acids: is there a major role for improved insulin sensitivity?

Fig. 2

Plasma glucose and insulin response curves after glucose administration (panel A and C, respectively) and related area-under-the-curve for glucose and insulin (panel B and D, respectively). LF low fat, HF SMFA high-fat saturated monounsaturated fatty acids, HF ePUFA high-fat essential polyunsaturated fatty acids. All values are means ± SE (n = 8). Data are analyzed by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) (**p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001), followed by post hoc pairwise comparisons using Scheffe test. Values not sharing a common superscript letter are significantly different at p < 0.05.
