ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The Euro Heart Survey on diabetes and heart has demonstrated high prevalence of latent glucose abnormalities in non-diabetic patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) in the European population. The aim of our survey was to assess the prevalence of latent abnormal glucose regulation in adult non-diabetic CAD patients in India. METHODS ANDRESULTS:
Seven centers distributed across India recruited 350 patients. The diagnosis of CAD was done by coronary angiography showing >50% stenosis in any major epicardial coronary artery or its branches. Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and fasting glucose levels were used to characterize glucose metabolism. Venous plasma glucose was measured before (fasting) and 2 hours after ingestion of glucose. Impaired fasting glucose (IFG) was defined as OGTT (0 minute)>or=100 mg/dl but <126 mg/dl and OGTT (2 hours)<140 mg/dl. Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) was defined as OGTT (0 minute)<126 mg/dl and OGTT (2 hours)>or=140 mg/dl but <200 mg/dl. Of the 350 patients studied, 176 (50.28%) had impaired glucose regulation (IFG-28 [8%]; IGT-148[42.28%]) and 75 (21.42%) had newly detected Diabetes. In all 251 (71.7%) patients with CAD had previously undetected abnormal glucose regulation.CONCLUSION:
This survey demonstrates the presence of abnormal glucose regulation in almost three quarters of the non-diabetic Indian CAD patients. OGTT should be recommended as routine screening test for detecting latent glucose abnormalities in all CAD patients.
