compared with observations in control experiments , neurohumoral counterregulatory blockade ( somatostatin , propranolol , phentolamine , and metyrapone ) , during which identical moderate hypoglycemia was achieved using the glucose clamp technique , resulted in suppressed glucose production ( 0.62 +/- 0.08 vs. 1.56 +/- 0.07 mg/kg per min at 12 h , p less than 0.01 ) and augmented glucose utilization ( 2.17 +/- 0.18 vs. 1.57 +/- 0.07 mg/kg per min at 12 h , p less than 0.01 ) .
