Characteristics of intestinal flora in female patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and coronary heart disease / 中华内分泌代谢杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the characteristics of intestinal flora in female patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with comorbid coronary heart disease.Methods:Female patients with T2DM from September 2019 to November 2020 were enrolled in this study and divided into 2 groups stratified by coronary heart disease 22 patients with coronary heart disease(T2DM+ CHD group) and 49 patients with simple T2DM group(T2DM group). Thirty-one healthy females were selected as the normal control group(NC group). The abundance of intestinal flora, the difference in intestinal flora and its relationship with indicators such as glycosylated hemoglobin and fasting blood glucose was analyzed by the real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR detection technology in the three groups.Results:The abundance of Prevotella in the T2DM group was lower, and Roseburia inulinivorans and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii in the T2DM+ CHD group were lower, while Bacteroides and Enterococcus spp in the T2DM+ CHD group were higher compared with NC group, respectively( P<0.05). The abundance of Bacteroides and Enterococcus spp in the T2DM+ CHD group was lower than that in the T2DM group( P<0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that the abundance of Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Eubacterium rectale was negatively correlated with obesity while abundance of Bacteroides and Enterococcus spp was positively correlated with HbA 1C and fasting blood glucose. The abundance of Bacteroides was positively correlated with TCH and TG(all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that Bacteroides and Enterococcus spp were independent influencing factor of the development of female patients with T2DM and CHD. Conclusion:Female T2DM and T2DM with CHD had intestinal flora imbalance, which was related to a variety of glucose and lipid metabolism indicators, and might be closely related to the occurrence of T2DM and CHD. Bacteroides and Enterococcus spp were independent influencing factors of the development of female patients with T2DM and CHD. Regulating the intestinal flora can provide ideas for the prevention and treatment of T2DM with CHD in female.
