The glucose titration curveCurve 1 of 2 · Q 1/5
Renal glucose handling as plasma glucose rises. The straight line from the origin is filtered load; the curve that levels off is reabsorption; the curve that starts flat on the axis and then climbs is excretion. The dashed line marks the renal threshold.
↑ Glucose (mg/min) · → Plasma glucose (0 → 800 mg/dL)
What happens at point A, where the excretion curve first leaves the axis?
