C-PEPTIDE concentrations in patients with type 2 diabetes treated with insulin

ConclusionIn this study, almost all patients with type 2 diabetes using insulin were found to have sufficient or borderline beta cell reserves. Our findings suggest a need to reexamine the practice of such widespread use of insulin in the treatment of patients with non-insulinopenic type 2 diabetes. and insulin resistance-related parameters were prominent in those with adequate beta cell reserve.
