The aim of the study was to evaluate in DTC diabetic (Gr1, n=30 under M 1500 mg/day) and non-diabetic without (Gr2, n=83) or under M (gr3, n=84; M 1000 mg/day) the adjuvant role of M. Clinical and laboratory examinations were performed up to 24 months. At baseline the DTC groups were similar for age, gender, tumor st...
