Postprandial glycemic control with biphasic insulin aspart in patients with type 1 diabetes.

We sought to investigate the ability of biphasic insulin aspart 30 (BIAsp 30) to control postprandial hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia in a meal-test comparison with biphasic human insulin 30 (BHI 30). In this randomised crossover trial, 50 patients with type 1 diabetes (mean age, 35.7 +/- 9.
