Sources of glucose production in cirrhosis by 2H2O ingestion and 2H NMR analysis of plasma glucose

Plasma glucose 2H enrichment was quantified by 2H NMR in patients with cirrhosis (n=6) and healthy subjects (n=5) fasted for 16 h and given 2H2O to ~0.5% body water. The percent contribution of glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis to glucose production (GP) was estimated from the relative enrichments...
