Albuminuria is associated with greater copeptin concentrations in men with type 1 diabetes: A brief report from the T1D exchange Biobank.

BRIEF SUMMARY: Vasopressin exerts important cardio-renal effects, but remains problematic to measure. Copeptin is a more stable peptide derived from the same precursor molecule. In this case-control study from the Type 1 Diabetes Exchange (T1DX) Biobank registry, men with T1D and albuminuria had greater copeptin concentrations than men with normoalbuminuria.
