Aim Evidence of a possible connection between gut microbiota and several physiological processes linked to type 1 diabetes is increasing. However, the effect of multistrain probiotics in people with type 1 diabetes remains unclear. This study investigated the effect of metformin as add-on therapy on glycemic control and other diabetes-related outcomes in people with type 1 diabetes.

Outcomes Primary outcomes were glycemic control related parameters, and secondary outcomes were anthropomorphic variables, lipid profile, blood pressure and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein. The gut microbiota profile will be analyzed before and after intervention .
