Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
Conditions
Brief summary
Investigate GIP effects on biomarkers involved in bone homeostasis
Interventions
On 3 matched days with 'hypoglycemia' (i.e. plasma glucose clamped between 3-7 mol/L for 120 minutes) either GIP (4 pmol/kg/min), glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) (1 pmol/kg/min) or placebo (saline) was administered; and on 2 separately matched days with 'hyperglycemia' (i.e. clamped at 12 mmol/L for 90 minutes) either GIP (4 pmol/kg/min) or saline was administered.

Study design
Masking description
Randomized, double-blinded, cross-over study with 5 study days.
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Patients with type 1 diabetes (positive islet cell/ glutamic acid decarboxylase-65 antibodies) * Patients without measurable beta cell function (i.e. incremental C-peptide below detection limit (\<0.16 nmol/l) following an 5 g-iv-arginine stimulation test,
Exclusion criteria
* HbA1c \>9% (75 mmol/mol), * standard plasma biochemical measurements outside normal reference interval (alanine aminotransferase, bilirubin, thyroid-stimulating hormone, hemoglobin, creatinine, and spot urine albumin-creatinine ratio); * an abnormal state of hypoglycemia awareness, * significant diabetic complications (i.e. proliferative diabetic retinopathy, neuropathy, severe atherosclerosis, heart disease) and, * treatment with medication (besides insulin) that could not be paused for 12 hours up to and during the days of the experiments.
