Miglitol can safely and effectively be added to diet and metformin in patients whose type 2 diabetes is insufficiently controlled, and improves glycaemic control by significantly reducing HbA1c and postprandial blood glucose levels.
Our study confirms the high specificity and sensitivity of CgA in diagnosing an endocrine tumor. It is necessary to use a cutoff range of 84 to 87 U/L to obtain a high specificity in diagnosing NETs, with the aim of excluding patients in whom the CgA was elevated as a result of other non-neoplastic diseases.
