I can’t seem to find the reference, but someone recently posted a great graphic about Alpha and Beta cell activity graphed against number of years since diagnosis. The graph went out to 10 or 15 years and showed that some people still had significant activity in both cell types and went a long way to explaining WYDMV in my mind. Does anyone remember that graphic and can they point me to it, or the source.

Thanks

I didn’t see the original post.

Maybe this or one of the references?

That is a great paper, it doesn’t have the graph I am looking for, but I think you are right I might be able to find it in the references. Thanks for posting.

First some background so the numbers make sense. They used an “ultra-sensitive ELISA” test to look for c-peptide. For this test, they set 1.17 pmol/L as the minimum detection level: anything below was considered “no measurable c-peptide.” …
