Patients with Type 1 Diabetes Treated with Insulin Pumps Need Widely Heterogeneous Basal Rate Profiles Ranging from Negligible to Pronounced Diurnal Variability.

We observe substantial interindividual heterogeneity in the "dawn" phenomenon. However, widely different empirically derived basal insulin infusion profiles appear appropriate for individual patients, as indicated by similar plasma glucose concentrations, mainly in the target range, during a 24-hour fasting period.
