Correlation between glucose variability and coronary artery stenosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus / 中华内分泌代谢杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the relationship between glucose variability and severity of coronary artery stenosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods One hundred hospitalized patients with T2DM(55 males and 45 females,39-81 years old) who had undergone angiography were included in the study from February 2012 to October 2012.They were divided into 2 groups(1) 60 patients with coronary heart disease(CHD)as experimental group and (2) 40 patients without coronary heart disease as control group.All participants underwent selective coronary angiography to evaluate the severity of coronary artery stenosis (Gensini score) and continuous glucose monitoring(CGM) for 72 h.The correlation was analyzed between biochemical findings,and Gensini scores between the 2 groups.The comparison between 2 groups was performed with LSD test,correlation analysis with Pearson correlation and multiple stepwise regression analysis.Result Compared with the levels of largest amplitude of blood glucose excursion (LAGE),standard deviation of blood glucose (SDBG),mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE),postprandial glucose excursion (MPPGE),and absolute means of daily differences (MODD) in control group [(8.1 ± 2.1),(1.9 ± 0.5),(4.8 ± 1.3),(4.5 ± 1.4),and (2.4 ± 0.8) respectively],the levels in the experimental group[(11.3 ± 3.5),(3.2 ± 1.2),(7.0 ± 2.6),(6.4 ± 1.9),and (3.1 ± 1.3)] were higher respectively.MPPGE,MODD,LAGE,and C-reactive protein(CRP) were positively related to Gensini score(r were 0.498,0.246,and 0.227,all P＜0.05),while left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was negatively related to Gensini score(r=-0.261,P＜0.05).Multiple stepwise regression analysis indicated that MPPGE and LVEF were independent risk factors of Gensini score (Y =59.727 + 11.779 × MPPGE-1.437 × LVEF).Conclusion Glucose variability in patients with T2DM and CHD was markedly enhanced.MPPGE was positively correlated with the severity of coronary artery stenosis in patients with T2DM and CHD.
