A layout of the experimental model adopted in this study is shown. Injections of labeled 13C-glucose (iLC) were performed after baseline (B) blood withdrawal in controls (no trauma/hemorrhagic shock—NT/NSh, n = 3), trauma (T yellow) or trauma/hemorrhagic shock rats (HS orange). Blood was thus collected and plasma separated at different time points (minutes from iLC are indicated in the green arrows).
