case_images: Changes in blood glucose levels, administration of glucose, and blood insulin concentrations.. Blood glucose was measured every hour, and the infusion rate of the 50% glucose solution was adjusted accordingly. The blood insulin level was 621.0 microU/mL at the time of admission and increased to 2648.5 microU/mL on day two. As the blood insulin levels tended to decrease, the infusion rate of 50% glucose solution was decreased gradually. The blood insulin level returned to normal on day six and the 50% glucose infusion was discontinued.
