Key Points

  • To assess the therapeutic effects of combined C-peptide and insulin administration on incipient nephropathy and neuropathy in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.
  • Administered combined treatment of C-peptide and insulin for a duration of 3 months in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.
  • Combined treatment improved renal function, evidenced by diminished urinary albumin excretion.
  • Treatment ameliorated both autonomic and sensory nerve dysfunction over the 3-month period.

Abstract

These results indicate that combined treatment with C-peptide and insulin for 3 months may improve renal function by diminishing urinary albumin excretion and ameliorate autonomic and sensory nerve dysfunction in patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus.
