    Document: Disclosures: Disclosures to report. The diabetic remission clinic is supported by Nestle Purina and Boehringer Ingelheim. is the underlying cause of diabetes mellitus in a substantial number of diabetic cats. Serum insulin-like growth factor-1 [IGF-1] measurement is currently the test of choice, with concentrations greater than 1000 ng/mL having a 95% positive predictive value. Therefore, all commercial laboratories currently use this value as a cut-off to indicate likely HS presence. However, endogenous insulin availability affects IGF-1 synthesis, thereby possibly reducing test sensitivity, especially in newly insulin-treated diabetic acromegalics.
