Brief summary

To compare the impact of insulin degludec (IDeg-100) and insulin glargine U300 (IGlar-300) on cardiovascular risk parameters - glycaemic variability (GV), oxidative stress, arterial stiffness and lipid parameters - in insulin naive patients with DMT2.

Detailed description

We recruited a total of 25 patients (23 completed the study) with T2DM who had uncontrolled disease on two or more oral antidiabetic drugs. After the wash-up period, they were randomized alternately to first receive either IDeg-100 or IGlar-300 along with metformin. Each insulin was applied for 12 weeks. At the beginning and the end of each phase, biochemical and oxidative stress parameters were analysed and augmentation index was measured. On three consecutive days prior to each control point, patients performed a 7-point SMBG profile. Oxidative stress was assessed by measuring thiol groups and hydroperoxides (d-ROM) in serum. For augmentation index measuring, we used SphygmoCor (AtCor Medical, Sydney, Australia) which allow non-invasive measurement of AIx on radial artery using strain gauge transducer placed on the tip of a pencil-type tonometer. This method is based on the principle of applanation tonometry
