We evaluated the influence of body adiposity (BA), which was measured by bioelectrical impedance, body mass index (BMI) and waist circunference (WC), in clinical and laboratorial parameters of 64 patients with type 1 diabetes (DM1), 33 females, matched for diabetes duration. Women had greater BA than men. Fourteen patients were overweight. In the whole group, we found correlations between BA and BMI (r= 0.50; p= 0.001), BA and WC (r= 0.30; p= 0.001) and BA and fasting glucose (r= 0.24; […]
