C-peptide tests can also be used to identify other conditions that impact hormone production, such as Addison’s disease or Cushing’s syndrome. In every form of diabetes, ...

Although ‘lean type 2 diabetes’ is not uncommon, clinicians must first exclude other causes including autoimmune, monogenic, ...

C-peptide test can help in the correct diagnosis and treatment of diabetes. This simple and cheap test can differentiate between Type-1 and Type-2 diabetes, as well as other genetic forms of diabetes.

Measuring extremely low levels of C-peptide in patients with type 1 diabetes may help predict future complications and HbA1c control, according to a presenter at the 50th European Association for ...

The mean peak C-peptide level at 52 weeks and percentage of participants with a C-peptide level of 0.2 pmol/mL or greater were similar between the two groups.

Evidence of gradual increases in serum concentration of C-peptide as pregnancy progresses in women with type 1 diabetes mellitus provides novel insight into mechanisms of β-cell failure and ...

C-peptide used to be considered a byproduct of insulin production but now scientists know that it acts as a hormone in its own right. The researchers measured how readily zinc, copper and chromium ...

Both treatment groups saw declines in C-peptide levels by 12 months, and mean area under the curve (AUC) for plasma C-peptide levels at 12 months—the study’s primary end point—was not ...

An early exploratory study involving adolescents showed improved C-peptide secretion at 12 months after a period of intensive insulin treatment in the hospital for 2 weeks after diagnosis. 7 A ...

C-peptide concentration may be a more stable measure of insulin production than circulating insulin levels and may have actions distinct from that of insulin. 28 Whether collecting blood close to ...
