Mar-Apr ; Epub Nov Gyömrői út Electronic address: erika. DOI: The aims of this study were to establish a model of long-term diabetes with sustained medium scale hyperglycemia and characterize the pathological changes detectable after 4months, with particular respect to dependence on the degree of hyperglycemia.

Methods: Streptozotocin-induced diabetic CFY rats were subjected to four different insulin substitution protocols to achieve different levels of glycemic control Diabetic groups. Eyes were investigated by ophthalmoscopy, kidney function by urine analysis, and neuropathy by functional tests.
