TL;DR: In a metabolic study of 15 patients with diabetes mellitus, a reciprocal relationship between fasting blood glucose and plasma or serum inorganic phosphorus was observed in all cases and there appeared to be a slight tendency, if any, toward a low positive correlation between the 24-hour excretion of glucose and in organic phosphorus in the urine.
Abstract: SummaryIn a metabolic study of 15 patients with diabetes mellitus, a reciprocal relationship between fasting blood glucose and plasma or serum inorganic phosphorus was observed in all cases. In general, low levels of blood sugar tended to be associated with high levels of inorganic phosphorus and vice versa. Although a negative correlation was found in all patients, the coefficient of correlation varied markedly from patient to patient. There appeared to be a slight tendency, if any, toward a low positive correlation between the 24-hour excretion of glucose and inorganic phosphorus in the urine. The significance and possible mechanisms of the observed interrelationships are discussed.We are indebted to Dr. s. Lee Crump, University of Rochester Medical Center, for statistical analyses in this paper.

TL;DR: The patterns of intra-daily variability produced by the two insulins in the group as a whole suggest that the daily distribution of insulin activity of lente insulin is similar to but slightly slower than that of NPH insulin, however, the twoinsulins may not always be directly interchangeable in the individual patient.
