  • Title: [On C-peptide and some other parameters in children with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (author's transl)].
    Author: Koepp P, Kühnau J.
    Journal: Monatsschr Kinderheilkd; 1982 Apr; 130(4):215-7. PubMed ID: 7048078.
    Abstract:
    C-peptide and some other parameters have been evaluated in 62 patients (31 male, 31 female) with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus in respect to quality of diabetic control. C-peptide was negatively correlated to duration of diabetes as was duration of initial remission with insulin requirements. Duration of initial remission was correlated positively to quality of diabetic control. The correlations of C-peptide with quality of diabetic control, insulin requirements and duration of initial remission were statistically not significant; insulin requirements and quality of diabetic control were not correlated significantly. From the results it is concluded that for the quality of diabetic control and hence the long-term course in patients with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus the duration of initial remission as a result of the quality of initial treatment is of the utmost importance.
