Out of the seven (7) claimed to have been cured, four (4) were reverted to Impaired Glucose Tolerance level (FPG < 7.0 mmol/l & 2hr OGTT > 7.8 mmol/l) and the rest three (3) were in the Confirmed Diagnosis of Diabetes Mellitus level (2hr OGTT > 11.1 mmol/l). '''In brief''' To put it in a nutshell, as per the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucose_tolerance_test#Interpretation_of_OGTT_results '''1999 WHO Diabetes criteria - Interpretation of OGTT Glucose levels'''] no one of the eleven (11) volunteers of the Newcastle University study appears to be cured.
