Text: A significant reduction of several parameters was observed only after acarbose treatment : fasting glycaemia (173 + / - 28 vs. 146 + / - 19 mg/dl ; p < 0. 01), postprandial glycaemia (230 + / - 24 vs. 148 + / - 20 mg/dl ; p < 0. 01), mean glycaemia (206 + / - 20 vs. 136 + / - 13 mg/dl ; p < 0. 01), mean variation (180 + / - 14 vs. 51 + / - 10 mg/dl ; p < 0. 01), HbA1c (8. 9 + / - 0. 8 vs. 7. 2 + / - 0. 5 ; p < 0. 05), C-peptide 2 h after a standard meal (4. 5 + / - 1. 9 vs. 2. 8 + / - 1. 7 ng/ml ; p < 0. 05), whereas the parameters did not change significantly after the placebo.
