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 ...

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 ...
