Mean blood glucose levels: (a) during the day; (b) nocturnal period; (c) fasting period; (d) after breakfast (BF); (e) after lunch; and (f) after dinner. Mean AUC: (g) nocturnal and fasting periods; and (h) postprandial periods. The values are presented as mean ± SEM. *represented statistically different AUC at this time period (P < 0.05). #represents hypoglycaemia (3.8–3.9 mmol/L)
