Popis: Aims Residual beta‐cell secretion in type 1 diabetes is commonly assessed by area‐under‐curve of plasma C‐peptide concentration (AUCCpep) following mixed‐meal tolerance test (MMTT). We aimed to investigate alternative measures of beta‐cell responsiveness. Methods We analyzed data from 32 youth (age 7 to 17 years) undergoing MMTT within 6 months of type 1 diabetes diagnosis. We related AUCCpep with (a) validated mechanistic index of postprandial beta‐cell responsiveness M I accounting for glucose level during MMTT, and (b) pragmatic marker calculated as baseline plasma C‐peptide concentration corrected for baseline plasma glucose concentration. Results Postprandial responsiveness M I was correlated with age and BMI SDS (R s = 0.66 and 0.44, P < 0.01 and P < 0.05) and was more correlated with glycated hemoglobin than AUCCpep (R s = 0.79, P = 0.04). The pragmatic marker was highly correlated with AUCCpep (R s = 0.94, P < 0.01). Conclusions Postprandial responsiveness M I may be more relevant to glucose control than AUCCpep. Baseline C‐peptide corrected for baseline glucose appears to be a suitable surrogate of AUCCpep if MMTT is not performed.
