ABSTRACT
Objective To assess the impact of glycemic variability on left ventricular function in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and type 2 diabetes.Methods Three hundred and three patients with type 2 diabetes and first STEMI between May 2014 and December 2016 in Beijing Anzhen Hospital,Capital Medical University were seclected continuously.All participants' continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) parameters,echocardiogram and biochemical characteristics were measured at baseline.According to the level of mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE) which is the gold indicator to present glycemic variability patients were classified into low MAGE group (n=182) and high MAGE group (n =117).Impact of glycemic variability on left ventricular function in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and type 2 diabetes were analysed.Results (1) Cardiac function evaluation:The level of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were significantly lower in high MAGE group than in low MAGE group ((43.8± 7.2) vs.(52.3± 8.5) ％,t =4.912,P＜ 0.001).There were significant differences between the two groups in Killip classification (x2 =49.931,P＜ 0.001).(2) Pearson correlation analysis shows that LVEF negatively correlated with the levels of MAGE(r=-0.367,P＜0.001),postprandial glucose excursion (PPGE) (r=-0.274,P=0.003),Hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c) (r=-0.238,P =0.010),serum highsensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) via logarithmic transformation (r =-0.245,P =0.008) and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (r =-0.229,P =0.021).Killip classification positively correlated with the levels of MAGE (r =0.301,P ＜ 0.001),PPGE (r =0.228,P =0.022),hs-CRP via logarithmic transformation (r =0.234,P =0.019),H bA 1 c (r =0.195,P =0.041) and FPG (r =0.193,P =0.045).(3) Multiple stepwise regression analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that the level of MAGE was independent risk factor of LVEF (t =-2.279,P =0.005,95％ CI(-3.160 -0.219)) and the level of MAGE was an independent risk factor of Killip classification (Waldx2 =5.673,OR=1.665,95％CI(1.095-2.534),P=0.017).Conclusion Glycemic variability is associated with the presence and severity of left ventricular function in patients with STEMI and type 2 diabetes.
ABSTRACT
Forty-eight men with normal glucose tolerance were divided into fatty liver disease ( NAFLD, n =23 ) and non-NAFLD (n =25 ) groups. The blood glucose excursion was evaluated by continuous glucose monitoring system. The results showed that the mean amplitude of glucose excursion[MAGE, (2. 17± 1.13 vs 1.45±0. 42 )mmol/L]and standard deviation of blood glucose[SDBG, (0. 88 ±0. 45 vs 0. 61 ±0. 21 ) mmol/L]were significantly higher in NAFLD group than in non-NAFLD group( both P＜0. 05 ). MAGE and SDBG were positively correlated with body mass index, waist circumference, and the increased value of plasma glucose 0. 5 h after glucose loading( △G30,all P＜0. 05 ). In multiple regression analysis, △G30, waist circumference, and age were significant independent predictors for MAGE( P＜0. 05 or P＜0. 01 ). △G30 and waist circumference were significant independent predictors for SDBG( P＜0. 05 or P＜0. 01 ).
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the accuracy of real-time continuous monitoring system (RT-CGMS) at different stages and its association with glucose excursion. Methods Totally 33 patients with type 1 diabetes or type 2diabetes were under surveillance of RT-CGMS for 5 d. Capillary glucose values were measured 7 times daily.Correlation coefficient, error grid analysis (EGA), and Bland-Altman analysis methods were used to assess the correlation, accuracy and agreement of RT-CGMS at different stages and in general level; The mean amplitude of glucose excursion (MAGE) and the frequency of glucose excursion ( FGE ) were also calculated. Results ( 1 ) The correlation coefficient of RT-CGMS with capillary glucose values at fasting, postprandial stages, and in general level were 0.94,0.92, and 0.93 respectively( P＜0.01 ). (2) EGA showed that 98.82%, 98.39%, and 98.64% of the results fell in the A and B zones and 1. 18%, 1.61%, and 1.36% fell in the D zone respectively at fasting,postprandial stages, and in general level. There is no result fell in C and E zones. ( 3 ) The agreement analysis showed that RT-CGMS readings were in close agreement with capillary glucose values at fasting, postprandial periods, and in general level. (4)The MAGE at fasting, postprandial periods, and in general level were (3.57±2.66), (4.07±3.09), and (4. 02 ±3.04) mmol/L (P＞0. 05), (0±0. 5), (3± 1), and( 1 ±3) d for FGE (P＜0. 01 ).Conclusion RT-CGMS at fasting stage has higher accuracy than postprandial stage and general level, FGE at fasting stage is higher than postprandial stage and general level.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore relationship between excursion of blood glucose levels and cognitive performance in diabetic patients over aged 60 years.Methods A total of 108 diabetic patients over aged 60 years were recruited in this study and they wore under continuous blood glucose monitoring system (CGMS) for three days to evaluate excursion of their mean blood glucose (MBG) level and its standard deviation (SD).All the participants accepted cognitive function tests during continuous blood glucose monitoring, including mini mental status examination (MMSE), Montreal cognitive assessment (MOCA) and clock drawing test (CDT).Relationship of the SD of blood glucose level and cognitive performance in the three cognitive tests was assessed.Data were analyzed with CGMS software version 3.0.Results The SD reversely correlated with scores of MMSE (r = - 0.324, P ＜ 0.01 ) and CDT ( r =-0.325, P = 0.001 ), but they did not significantly correlate with MOCA scores (r = -0.212, P =0.081 ).Statistically significant difference was observed between the SD and scores of all three cognitive tests adjusted for glycosylated hemoglobin Alc (HbAlc) level (r = -0.387, -0.046 and -0.292, P =0.029, ＜0.001 and ＜ 0.001, respectively).The SD reversely correlated with scores of MMSE, MOCA and CDT adjusted for MBG (r= -0.314, -0.466 and -0.345, P ＜0.01, respectively).Results of multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the SD reversely correlated to scores of MMSE, MOCA and CDT (β = - 0.378, - 0.224 and - 0.346, all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Excursion of blood glucose levels can influence their cognitive performance in diabetic patients over aged 60 years, leading to decrease in their overall cognitive function and activities as its excursion large enough.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the excursion of blood glucose (BG) in the type 2 diabetes mellitus treated with oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) plus glargine or human isophane insulin (HII). Methods A 1 : 1 randomization schedule assigned 30 type 2 diabetics inadequately controlled on OADs (fasting BG>9.0 mmol/L and HbA1C > 8.5%) to 2 groups additionally treated with glargine or HII. The insulin dose was titrated to achieve fasting capillary BG<6.0 mmol/L. Montoring BG with continuous glucose monitoring system, then the standard deviation of BG (SDBG), maximal excursion of BG (LAGE) and coefficient of variation (CV) of fasting plasma glucose (FPG) were calculated. Results SDBG (1.49±0.35 vs 1.73±0.46), LAGE (3.23±0.76 vs 3.73± 1.00) and CV-FPG (17.26±2.24 vs 20.33±3.21) were lower in glargine group than those in HII group (P< 0.05). No difference could be found in hypoglycaemia between two groups. Conclusion OADs plus glargine could make blood glucose more stable than OADs plus HII without increasing the incidence of hypoglycaemia.
ABSTRACT
Glycemic excursion was induced in SD rats by intraperitoneal injection of 50% glucose solution, and cells isolated from bone marrow of these rats showed cell clusters which expressed insulin, c-peptide, glucagon, somatostatin and islet amyloid polypeptide, and other genes related to islet-cells development and functions.
ABSTRACT
A total of 123 type 2 diabetics was randomised into 3 groups to receive gliclazide-MR, gliclazide or glibenclamide treatments for 16 weeks.All the subjects took self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) during the trial.The effect of therapy was similar in 3 groups.The subtraction value between maximum and minimum blood glucose, mean postprandial maximum blood glucose, postprandial 2 h blood glucose, postprandial 2 h serum insulin and hypoglycaemia events were lower in gliclazide-MR group than those in glibenclamide group (all P＜0.01).The data suggest that SMBG is an useful method to evaluate blood glucose excursion.
ABSTRACT
A total of 126 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were randomized into two groups:one received glimepiride 1 mg twice daily and the other 2 mg once daily.Fasing blood glucose(BG),BG 2 h after meals(breakfast,lunch and dinner)and HbA_(IC)were tested,△and standard deviation of the 4 point BG were calculated.It was found that two kinds of administration of glimepiride were equally effective in decreasing BG and once daily aministration could ease better the fluctuation of BG.
ABSTRACT
The effects of human insulin 70/30 and insulin lispro 75/25 were compared in improving postprandial blood glucose excursions in 106 patients with type 1 or 2 diabetes in a one-month,open-labelled,self- controlled trial .The results showed that treatment of diabetic patients with insulin lispro 75/25 significantly improved 2 h postprandial blood glucose excursion compared to pre-study with human insulin 70/30 (baseline) without any significant adverse events or sustained hypoglycemic episodes.These physiological benefits were associated with a patient preference for insulin lispro 75/25.
