The aim of present study was to analyse the reproducibility of plasma-free insulin profiles of subcutaneously (CSII) and intraperitoneally (CIPII) administered insulin in 6 C-peptide-negative, type 1, diabetic patients. The patients were selected for CIPII because of unsatisfactory, long-term, metabolic response to CSII. Plasma-free insulin was measured repeatedly, twice during subcutaneous infusion and twice during intraperitoneal infusion, for 4 hours, following a standard breakfast. In the CSII experiment, insulin was given as a meal-dose of 0.1 U per kg body weight, and in the CIPII experiment the meal-dose was 0.05 U per kg body weight. The dose-induced peak occurred earlier after the CIPII than with the CSII (60.0 +/- 8.0 vs 133.6 +/- 16.3 min). In conclusion, the intra-patient coefficient of variation (C.V.) of plasma-free-insulin profiles at 0-60 min and 0.240 min, as well as the peak time, were markedly lower for CIPII insulin than for CSII, indicating a more reproducible way of insulin administration with CIPII in this selected group of patients.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007328 Insulin A 51-amino acid pancreatic hormone that plays a major role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, directly by suppressing endogenous glucose production (GLYCOGENOLYSIS; GLUCONEOGENESIS) and indirectly by suppressing GLUCAGON secretion and LIPOLYSIS. Native insulin is a globular protein comprised of a zinc-coordinated hexamer. Each insulin monomer containing two chains, A (21 residues) and B (30 residues), linked by two disulfide bonds. Insulin is used as a drug to control insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 1).

D007332 Insulin Infusion Systems Portable or implantable devices for infusion of insulin. Includes open-loop systems which may be patient-operated or controlled by a pre-set program and are designed for constant delivery of small quantities of insulin, increased during food ingestion, and closed-loop systems which deliver quantities of insulin automatically based on an electronic glucose sensor.

D003922 Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1 A subtype of DIABETES MELLITUS that is characterized by INSULIN deficiency. It is manifested by the sudden onset of severe HYPERGLYCEMIA, rapid progression to DIABETIC KETOACIDOSIS, and DEATH unless treated with insulin. The disease may occur at any age, but is most common in childhood or adolescence.
