Clinical expert consensus on the assessment and protection of pancreatic islet β-cell function in type 2 diabetes mellitus
Recommendations
As issued by the authors
β-cell function can be clinically assessed using blood glucose-based methods or methods combining blood glucose and endogenous insulin or C-peptide levels
Weight loss and early and sustained euglycemia control could effectively protect islet β-cell function
Newer drugs such as SGLT2i and GLP-1 RA could improve islet β-cell function, independent of glycemic control
