Metabolic Phenotype of Stage 1 and Stage 2 Type 1 Diabetes Using Modeling of β Cell Function

J Clin Endocrinol MetabPublished Cross-sectional study

Authors' conclusion

The oral minimal model describes the differential metabolic phenotype of Stage 1 and Stage 2 T1D and identifies the φ total as a progression predictor. This supports its use as a sensitive tool and endpoint for T1D prevention trials.

Study context

Population
Individuals with islet autoimmunity screened at a TrialNet site, undergoing a 5-point, 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)
Participants
27 vs 30
Exposure
Stage 2 vs Stage 1 T1D
  • Stage 2n = 27
  • Stage 1n = 30reference
Outcome
Metabolic phenotype (insulin secretion, sensitivity, clearance)

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

  • Standard metrics of insulin secretion and sensitivity did not differ between Stage 1 and Stage 2 T1D
  • Stage 2 vs Stage 1: P < 0.001
  • Stage 2 vs Stage 1: P = 0.034
  • Stage 2 vs Stage 1: P = 0.006

Observational data: associations, not effects.

Further findings

Higher baseline φ total associated with reduced odds of disease progression, OR (interval)
OR 0.92 [0.86, 0.98], P = .016
  • Independent of stage
