Mean±SEM (all such values).
iAUC, incremental area under the curve (calculated across the 24 h, using the trapezoidal rule); MAGE, mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (determined by calculating the arithmetic mean of the difference between consecutive peaks and nadirs if the difference is >1 SD of the mean glucose).
