Similar renin response to diazoxide in uncomplicated juvenile diabetes; hypothesis-generating and leaves open effects in nephropathy or hypertension.
Does diazoxide infusion affect plasma renin activity differently in juvenile diabetics without hypertension and nephropathy compared to normal subjects?
Plasma renin activity is normal or possibly elevated in clinically uncomplicated insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and responds to diazoxide stimulation similarly to normal subjects.
Gossain et al. (1975) studied this question.
