Summary
-
1.
Six of ten patients required less globin than protamine for satisfactory diabetic control. The other four cases were regulated with the same dose of both types of insulin.
-
2.
Of six patients stabilized with protamine and regular insulin, only two were able to secure similar regulation with globin insulin alone.
