(A) Treatment group and route for pioglitazone administration by subject. (B) Pharmacokinetic profile for subjects randomized to the pioglitazone group. Pioglitazone concentration of individual subjects over time. Black symbols = subjects who received drug by mouth (PO route). White symbols = subjects who received drug by NG route. (C) Pioglitazone area under the curve (AUC) estimates for subjects by route of administration. Black symbols = PO route, White symbols = NG route. (D) Pioglitazone concentration as the total AUC/number of days receiving the drug in subjects who took the drug PO versus by NG tube.
