Abstract

Aims/introduction: The aim of this study in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) was to evaluate the relationship of insulin resistance and secretion to area-under-the-sensor glucose concentration–time curve from before to 120 min postmeal (CGM-AUC0–120 min) as determined with continuous glucose monitoring (CGM).

Materials and methods: Immunoreactive insulin and HbA1c were determined in 22 Japanese patients with GDM undergoing a 75 g oral glucose tolerance test. Patients underwent CGM within 3 weeks of receiving a diagnosis of GDM.

Results: HbA1c (NGSP) was 5.5 ± 0.4%, BMI was 24.8 ± 5.3 kg/m2, mean sensor glucose by CGM was 94.2 ± 10.3 mg/dL, standard deviation was 17.5 ± 4.4 mg/dL, and CGM-AUC0–120 min was 204.2 ± 23.8 h mg/dL. The insulin resistance indices the homeostasis model assessment ratio (HOMA-R), quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI), and the Matsuda Index were correlated with CGM-AUC0–120 min. The disposition index (DI), which was used to evaluate insulin secretion, was negatively correlated with CGM-AUC0–120 min.

Conclusions: Not only insulin resistance but also beta cell dysfunction contributes to postprandial hyperglycemia in Japanese patients with GDM.

目的/介绍:本试验旨在研究合并妊娠期糖尿病(GDM)的患者,在用餐前和用餐后120分钟,胰岛素抵抗和释放,与葡萄糖浓度-时间曲线下面积(CGM-AUC0-120min)之间的关系,主要应用动态血糖监测的方法(CGM)进行测定。

方法和对象:免疫反应的方法检测合并GDM的22例患者,在进行75g口服葡萄糖耐量试验后,胰岛素和HbA1c的水平。在3周内进行CGM后诊断为GDM。

结果:HbA1c(NGSP)为5.5±0.4%,BMI为24.8±5.3kg/m2, CGM检测的平均葡萄糖传感浓度为94.2±10.3mg/dL, 平均偏差为17.5±4.4mg/dL, CGM-AUC0-120min为204.2±23.8hmg/dL。稳态胰岛素抵抗指数(HOMA-R),定量胰岛素敏感性检测指数(QIUCKI),松田指数与CGM-AUC0-120min有关。处置指数(DI),用于评估胰岛素释放,与CGM-AUC0-120min无关。

结论:不仅是胰岛素抵抗,同样β细胞功能紊乱均可导致合并GDM的日本患者餐后高血糖。
