Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Does insulin at normal physiological levels prolong QT ( c ) interval in thorough QT studies performed in healthy volunteers?
Answer: The findings of this study demonstrate that there was no change in QT(c) during the euglycaemic clamp. Given that insulin was raised to physiological concentrations comparable with those seen after a meal, whilst the release of C-peptide was suppressed, insulin appears to have no effect on the QT(c) interval in either direction. The results suggest a relationship exists between the shortening of QT(c) and C-peptide concentrations and indicate that glucose may have a QT(c) prolonging effect, which will require further research.
Output (English): no
