Background: Difficulty of glycemic control varies among subjects with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Influence of residual endogenous insulin detected by serum C-peptide (CPR) levels has noted to be on glycemic control. Flush glucose monitoring (FGM) detects glucose concentration in intercellular fluid (sensor glucose) every 15 minutes to reveal daily glucose profiles.Aims: We tried to clarify the relationship between serum CPR and the excursion of blood glucose...

Background: Vertical transfer of maternal cells to the fetus via the placenta leads to maternal microchimerism (MMc) in children. Previous studies from USA have shown that the prevalence and degree of MMc was significantly higher in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) than in their unaffected siblings and control individuals. To date, however, the frequency of MMc in non-Caucasian T1D patients remains to be examined.Methods</stro...
