Summary

The purpose of this study is to understand how the pancreas functions after transplantation and particularly why high blood sugar levels develop. It will also analyze the effect of the medicines used to prevent rejection on blood sugar levels.

The hypothesis to be tested is that hyperglycemia more than six months after successful pancreas transplant results from a defect in insulin secretion, insulin resistance, or both.
