New blood test may reveal how many insulin cells kids with diabetes still have
NCT ID NCT05594706
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a substance in the blood called 1,5-anhydroglucitol can help measure how many insulin-making cells (beta cells) children with type 1 diabetes still have. Researchers will compare levels in 60 children with diabetes (newly diagnosed and long-term) to healthy volunteers. The goal is to find a simple blood test that tracks beta-cell function over time, which could improve diabetes care.
