Short-term intensive insulin treatment and sensitivity of sulfonylureas / 中国医师进修杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To research the effects of short-term intensive insulin treatment on regaining the sensitivity of sulfonylureas in diabetes patients. Methods Thirty patients from outpatient and emergency department,including 12 male and 18 female,who took regular-dose sulfonylureas but was high blood glucose level,were selected to suspend the sulfonylureas treatment and were given the BIAsp30 to control the blood glucose level for three months,then they were stopped the BIAsp30 and took the same sulfonylureas used before.Results The average fasting blood glucose(FBG) was(9.4?7.5)mmol/L and the average postprandial 2 h blood glucose(PG2h)(or random blood glucose) was(14.2?7.2)mmol/L in 3 months before stopping the sulfonylureas.The average FBG was(5.7?0.7)mmol/L and PG2h was(7.2?1.4)mmol/L at the beginning of the insulin getting the blood glucose under control.The average FBG was(6.0?0.8)mmol/L and PG2h was (7.8?1.2)mmol/L during the insulin treatment.The average FBG was(6.1?0.6)mmol/L and PG2 h was(7.7?1.3)mmol/L at the end of the insulin treatment.The average FBG was(6.5?0.5)mmol/L and PG2h was(8.1?(0.8))mmol/L when continuing the sulfonylureas treatment in one months.It increased significantly to compare the blood glucose before the treatment of insulin to that after the treatment of insulin(P
