This 1-year follow-up study was conducted on 21 subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus. We found reduction in glycosylated hemoglobin from 10.5% to 8.1%, and maintenance of BMI z-scores from 3.9 to 3.8. Majority of the patients could be weaned-off from insulin. Heterogeneous presentation, frequent co-morbidities and complications, and familial clustering were observed.
