Insulin secretion predicts response to therapy in new-onset diabetes
The increase in C-peptide (C-Pep) above fasting following glucose load is associated with response to antihyperglycaemic therapy in patients with new-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), according to a study. The plasma C-Pep concentration ratio (C-Pep120/C-Pep0) may be used for the individualization of such therapy in this population.
