Brief Summary

Diabetic patients who have long-term insulin used can product antibody against exogenous insulin, the investigators named this condition Exogenous insulin antibody syndrome (EIAs). Exogenous insulin antibody can cause blood glucose fluctuation, high blood glucose and refractory hypoglycemia, and have a serious impact on the health of diabetic patients. After adding glucocorticoid, some EIAs patients can reduce insulin dosage, correct hypoglycemia, even eliminate insulin antibody in about half a year, and achieve the goal of blood glucose stability. But up to now, there is no study to evaluate the improvement of blood glucose by glucocorticoid intervention in EIAS patients receiving insulin therapy. This project plans to collect 20 cases of EIAS and carry out a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the improvement of blood glucose by glucocorticoid intervention.
