Gastric
emptying and postprandial glucose excursions in adolescents with
type 1 diabetes |
| |
Because amylin is co-secreted with insulin from
beta cells, patients with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) are deficient
in both insulin and amylin. Amylin delays gastric emptying and
suppresses glucagon in the postprandial period. Hence, we hypothesized
that children with complication-naive T1DM have accelerated gastric
emptying in response to a mixed meal because of amylin deficiency
