    Citation Excerpt :

    Post-reactive hypoglycaemia (PRH) was defined by 2 h plasma [glucose] ≤ 3.9 mmol·L − 1. Lung function was assessed using flow-volume spirometry (3500 MicroLab Spirometer MK8, CareFusion, CA, USA), in accordance with the British Thoracic Society guidelines [20]. Forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC) were determined as the highest of three consistent (≤ 5% variability) manoeuvres and presented as a percentage of the Global Lung Function Initiative (2012) reference values [21].
