Does hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamping increase glucose uptake in chronically dysfunctional but viable myocardium compared to the fasting state?
Insulin control over glucose uptake is preserved in chronically dysfunctional but viable myocardium, demonstrating that metabolic responsiveness remains intact.
Mäki et al. (1996) studied this question.
