Abstract
UNLABELLED: Aims/Introduction: Type 2 diabetes is progressive in that therapy must be altered over time, which is partly as a result of the progressive loss of pancreatic β-cell function. To elucidate the relationship between residual endogenous insulin secretion and the necessity of insulin therapy to achieve good glycemic control, indices using serum C-peptide immunoreactivity (CPR) were analyzed in patients with type 2 diabetes.Entities:
