Aim: To investigate the relationship of arterial stiffness with short- and long-term parameters of glycemic control and glycation in patients with type 1 diabetes.Methods: Cross-sectional study at a tertiary care centre including 54 patients with type 1 diabetes free from known CVD. Arterial stiffness was assessed with carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV). Current level and 10-years history of HbA1c was evaluated, and skin advanced glycation end-...

BackgroundPrecise diagnostics for postprandial reactive hypoglycaemic syndrome (PRHS) after gastric bypass surgery (GBS) are lacking. Oral glucose tolerance tests are advocated but might cause early dumping in this population and often cause hypoglycaemic values in a normal population.AimTo evaluate glycaemic responses during liquid and solid mixed meal tolerance tests (LMMTT and SMMTT) in a post-GBS populati...
