Serum GIP levels are decreased in response to cardiac surgery (Clinical study II): Kinetics of serum GIP levels over time after cardiac surgery (time point 1: at baseline before cardiac surgery, time point 2: at arrival to the ICU (4–6 h post initiation of surgery), time point 3: 6 h post arrival to the ICU (10–12 h post initiation of surgery), time points 4 and 5: in the morning one and two days after surgery). A linear mixed model for logarithmized GIP values with time point as independent factor, a random patient effect and a compound symmetry covariance structure was computed (time point effect p = 0.0105). P-values for the comparison between time points 2– to 1 (baseline) were adjusted using the Dunnett-Hsu adjustment for multiple comparisons (comparison between time point 4 and baseline p = 0.0384)
