Natural Course of Insulin Resistance in Type I Diabetes

To examine the natural course of insulin action in Type I diabetes, we followed 15 patients prospectively for one year after the diagnosis of diabetes and also performed a cross-sectional study of 53 additional patients who had had diabetes for 2 to 32 years. Two weeks after diagnosis, the rate of g...

Zusammenfassung:To examine the natural course of insulin action in Type I diabetes, we followed 15 patients prospectively for one year after the diagnosis of diabetes and also performed a cross-sectional study of 53 additional patients who had had diabetes for 2 to 32 years. Two weeks after diagnosis, the rate of glucose uptake during hyperinsulinemia, a measure of insulin action, was 32 percent lower in the patients with diabetes than in 30 matched normal subjects (P
