Elevated copeptin, arterial stiffness, and elevated albumin excretion in adolescents with type 1 diabetes

We sought to evaluate copeptin concentrations in adolescents with and without type 1 diabetes (T1D) and examine the associations between copeptin and measures of arterial stiffness and kidney dysfunction.This analysis included 169 adolescents with T1D (12-19 years of age, 59% girls, mean HbA1c 9.0 ± 1.5% and diabetes duration of 8.6 ± 2.9 years), in addition to 61 controls without T1D. Arterial stiffness including carotid-femoral pulse wave...
