Impaired transcapillary fluid absorption may signal early volume dysregulation in type 1 diabetes; hypothesis-generating case-control observation requiring prospective confirmation.
Is transcapillary fluid absorption during hypovolaemic circulatory stress impaired in patients with type 1 diabetes compared to healthy controls?
Type 1 diabetes patients exhibit impaired transcapillary fluid absorption during hypovolaemic stress before clinical microangiopathy develops, indicating early defects in plasma volume regulation.
Olsen et al. (1999) studied this question.
