Article Synopsis
- A study conducted on 57 Chinese children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes aimed to find simpler methods for assessing endogenous insulin secretion, since previous tests were too complex.
- Findings showed that 44% of the participants had severe insulin deficiency (SID), and fasting C-peptide measurements were highly effective in identifying most cases.
- The research concluded that fasting C-peptide tests are more reliable than insulin dose measurements for evaluating how much insulin the body produces, highlighting their potential in refining treatment approaches for young patients.
