Prediction of the clinical remission using the C-peptide level in type 1 diabetes in children
Journal Title: Endokrynologia, Diabetologia i Choroby Przemiany Materii Wieku Rozwojowego - Year 2007, Vol 13, Issue 2
Abstract
The aim of the study was to identify individual, clinical and metabolic factors that predict the C-peptide levels and appearance of clinical partial remission during the first year of type 1 diabetes (T1D) in children. Material and methods: 197 type 1 diabetic patients (84 female and 113 male, mean age 10.4 years) were examined. C-peptide levels were detected by radioimmunoassay at the diagnosis and after 3, 6 and 12 months of the disease. Results: Median C-peptide level at onset was 0.17 pmol/mL (0.11-0.32), peaked in the 3rd month (0.27 pmol/mL, 0.15-0.43; p
