Glycaemic Load and Pre-meal Insulin Doses in Type 1 Diabetes Patients

The aim of this study is to compare the feasibility and the efficacy on short-term glucose control of pre-meal insulin doses adjustment made on the bases of the glycemic load or of the carbohydrates content of the meal in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus treated with insulin pump
