Anemia is inversely associated with serum C-peptide concentrations in individuals with type 2 diabetes
The purpose of the study was to test the hypothesis that anemia is related with serum C-peptide concentrations in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM).
This cross-sectional study was carried out in 1300 individuals with type 2 DM. We measured fasting C-peptide, 2-hour postprandial C-peptide, and postprandial C-peptide minus fasting C-peptide (ΔC-peptide) concentrations. Anemia was defined as hemoglobin (Hb) concentrations
