The relationships between HbA1c level and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) at the initial visit and the incidence of diabetes after 5 years of follow-up were investigated in 819 subjects participating in a general health examination. The 100 g OGTT was performed. In order to use WHO criteria, the blood glucose levels of 100 g OGTT corresponding to those of 75 g OGTT were adopted according to the recommendations of the Japan Diabetes Society. Subjects other than diabetic type and IGT (impaired glucose tolerance) were divided into a normal group (fasting blood glucose < 100 mg/dl, 1-h blood glucose < 160 mg/dl, a 2-h blood glucose < 120 mg/dl) and a borderline group (the remaining subjects). In IGT, the incidence of diabetes in the low- (< or = 6.3%), intermediate- (6.4-6.7%) and high-HbA1c (> of = 6.8%) groups were 10.4%, 23.1% and 52.5%, respectively (high vs intermediate and low, P < 0.001; intermediate vs low, P < 0.05). In the borderline group, the incidence were 2.8%, 14.3% and 28.6%, respectively (high and intermediate vs low, P < 0.001). The results showed that the combination of HbA1c level and OGTT enables more precise prediction of progression to NIDDM in subjects with glucose intolerance. 相似文献

Leptin is the protein product of the ob gene, an adipocyte-specific gene, recently discovered in mice. Plasma leptin levels were determined in six normals, twenty-one subjects with impaired glucose tolerance, and forty-nine untreated NIDDM subjects. They increased with the augmentation of obesity (body mass index, BMI kg/m2) and were higher in females than in males: in BMI less than 25 kg/m2 the values of plasma leptin were 2.24 +/- 0.25 ng/ml (n=29) in males and 3.01 +/- 0.39 ng/ml (n=13) in females (P<0.054), respectively, in BMI between 25 kg/m2 and 30 kg/m2 they were 3.14 +/- 0.31 ng/ml (n=10) in males and 10.66 +/- 2.86 ng/ml (n=7) in females (P<0.0018) and in BMI higher than 30 kg/m2 their levels were 8.98 +/- 1.5 ng/ml (n=11) and 11.74 +/- 2.2 ng/ml (n=6) (P<0.23), respectively. The severity of diabetes mellitus judged from the fasting plasma glucose level had no influence on the plasma leptin levels during OGTT, but the leptin levels decreased significantly during a tolerance test (P<0.001), and similar results were also seen during a breakfast test. The fasting plasma leptin in the male with FBS less than 140 mg/dl had a significant correlation with the fasting plasma IRI level, but this correlation disappeared after taking obesity into consideration. Thus the plasma leptin was chiefly dependent on the body weight and gender and had no special relation to diabetic severity. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To describe the prevalence of NIDDM and LEA using data from a computer-based patient data base. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Diabetic patients with and without LEA, and nondiabetic patients were identified by computer search. Charts of diabetic patients were reviewed for confirmation of diagnosis of diabetes and diabetes-related amputation. The diabetic and nondiabetic populations were described, and certain risk factors were identified. RESULTS: The overall prevalence of NIDDM in this tribe in 1985-1986 was 18.3/100 adults (> or = 18 yr of age), whereas the prevalence of LEA/100 adults with NIDDM was 10.3%. Females were 1.3 times as likely to have diagnosed diabetes as males (95% CI 1.2-1.4), and males with diabetes were 1.4 times more likely to have had LEA than females with diabetes (95% CI 1.1-1.9). CONCLUSIONS: Automated health-care delivery data base used for this tribe can be used to maintain surveillance for diabetes and amputations in diabetic patients. Effective programs to prevent complications of diabetes, such as LEA, in this tribe are urgently needed. 相似文献

This population based study was undertaken to ascertain the overall prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) in the elderly using the WHO criteria. The role of obesity in the development of DM or IGT has been investigated for both sexes per decade of age. Furthermore the potential for DM to increase with age, as has been suggested before, has been evaluated using the IGT as a proportion of total glucose intolerance (IGT/TGI) for the same parts of the tested sample. From the 647 persons registered as elderly people in a small town in northern Greece (total population 5875 people), 66 persons did not participate in this survey. Fifty-six subjects (9.7%) had previously diagnosed DM. The remainder were tested using fasting blood glucose measurements or an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). The prevalence of previously undiagnosed DM according to fasting blood glucose values or after 2 h of 75 g load values was 10.1% and 9.3%, respectively. Thus the overall prevalence of DM was 29.1% and of IGT was 15.1%. These data support an increased frequency of DM (65% previously undiagnosed) and IGT in the elderly, whereas this population's susceptibility seems to decline in the older groups for both sexes. Obesity remains a risk factor for DM and IGT particularly among the younger groups although its role has been found to decline with age. 相似文献

Our aim is to determine non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) incidence in Taiwan and examine its relation to obesity and hyperinsulinaemia in Chinese men and women. A total of 995 men and 1195 women aged 35-74 years free from diabetes in two townships in Taiwan were followed up with a second examination. At baseline general and metabolic data were recorded, and detailed anthropometric parameters and plasma glucose and insulin were assessed. World Health Organisation (WHO) criteria of fasting glucose 7.8 mmol/l or greater was utilized for defining diabetes. The age-standardized incidence rate based on the United States population in 1970 was 9.3/1000 (CI 5.8-12.8) in men and 9.3/1000 (CI 6.2-12.4) in women and the based on the WHO population in 1976 was 8.9/1000 (CI .5-12.3) in men and 8.9/1000 (CI 5.9-11.9) in women for the Chinese who had a mean BMI slightly greater than 24 (kg/m2). The predictability of the plasma glucose level was greater than that of the insulin level and the obesity indices. NIDDM incidence increased approximately threefold with each 0.67 mmol/l increase in plasma glucose level in men and women. The present study demonstrated the essential relationship of not only BMI but also central obesity indices (such as subscapular and waist circumference) to the incidence of NIDDM among men and women and a stronger relationship between NIDDM incidence and obesity in women than in men. The predictive effects of obesity indices and fasting plasma insulin values on NIDDM risk were independent of each other in men. Obesity and hyperinsulinaemia each without the presence of the other can lead to an increased risk of NIDDM. In women the NIDDM incidence increased more than additively in those with both obesity and hyperinsulinaemia compared to those with single obesity or hyperinsulinaemia. A slightly higher incidence of NIDDM in Taiwan than in western countries was found. The importance of obesity is indicated for predicting NIDDM in the community. Hyperinsulinaemia was found to play a significant role in predicting NIDDM incidence independent of obesity in men and synergistically with obesity in women. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To estimate the rate of deterioration of glucose tolerance and evaluate risk factors for development of NIDDM in Navajo women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 111 GDM deliveries over a 4-year period, 1983-1987, was conducted in 1994 to determine glucose tolerance status. Patients who had not developed NIDDM were recalled for a 2-h glucose tolerance test (GTT). Tested and non-tested patients were compared, as estimate of conversion to NIDDM was calculated, and risk factors for NIDDM were evaluated. A life-table analysis was developed to estimate the probability of NIDDM after GDM. RESULTS: At the time of chart review, 32 patients (29%) had already been diagnosed with NIDDM. Of the patients, 79 were offered GTT testing, and 56 (71%) returned for follow-up; 15 were diagnosed with NIDDM and 17 with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT); 47 (42%) and 64 (58%) patients in the cohort had developed NIDDM or NIDDM/IGT at the conclusion of the study period. Patients who developed NIDDM had greater BMIs, parity, and infant weights. Fasting blood glucose > 5.83 mmol/l, GTT > 41.63 mmol/l, and recurrence of GDM were associated with later NIDDM. A life-table analysis estimated a 53% likelihood of having NIDDM at an 11-year follow-up; a second model, based only on patients with known NIDDM status, predicted a 70% rate of NIDDM at an 11-year follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: A high proportion of Navajo women with GDM progressed to NIDDM. Postpartum counseling and periodic GTTs are recommended. 相似文献

Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and NIDDM are both associated with an impaired ability of the beta-cell to sense and respond to small changes in plasma glucose concentrations. The aim of this study was to establish if glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), a natural enteric peptide and potent insulin secretagogue, improves this defect. Two weight-matched groups, one with eight subjects having IGT (2-h glucose, 10.1 +/- 0.3 mmol/l) and another with seven subjects with diet-treated NIDDM (2-h glucose, 14.5 +/- 0.9 mmol/l), were studied on two occasions during a 12-h oscillatory glucose infusion, a sensitive test of the ability of the beta-cell to sense and respond to glucose. Glucose was infused with a mean rate of 4 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1), amplitude 33% above and below the mean rate, and periodicity of 144 min, with infusion of saline or GLP-1 at 0.4 pmol x kg(-1) x min(-1) for 12 h. Mean glucose levels were significantly lower in both groups during the GLP-1 infusion compared with during saline infusion: 9.2 +/- 0.4 vs. 6.4 +/- 0.1 mmol/l in the IGT subjects (P < 0.0004) and 14.6 +/- 1.0 vs. 9.3 +/- 0.7 mmol/l in NIDDM subjects (P < 0.0002). Despite this significant reduction in plasma glucose concentration, insulin secretion rates (ISRs) increased significantly in IGT subjects (513.3 +/- 77.6 vs. 583.1 +/- 100.7 pmol/min; P < 0.03), with a trend toward increasing in NIDDM subjects (561.7 +/- 122.16 vs. 642.8 +/- 128 pmol/min; P = 0.1). These results were compatible with enhanced insulin secretion in the presence of GLP-1. Spectral power was used as a measure of the ability of the beta-cell to secrete insulin in response to small changes in the plasma glucose concentration during the oscillatory infusion. Spectral power for ISR increased from 2.1 +/- 0.9 during saline infusion to 7.4 +/- 1.3 during GLP-1 infusion in IGT subjects (P < 0.004), but was unchanged in NIDDM subjects (1.0 +/- 0.4 to 1.5 +/- 0.6; P = 0.3). We concluded that low dosage GLP-1 improves the ability of the beta-cell to secrete insulin in both IGT and NIDDM subjects, but that the ability to sense and respond to subtle changes in plasma glucose is improved in IGT subjects, with only a variable response in NIDDM subjects. Beta-cell dysfunction was improved by GLP-1 infusion, suggesting that early GLP-1 therapy may preserve beta-cell function in subjects with IGT or mild NIDDM. 相似文献

Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) is well recognized as a risk factor for the development of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Detecting IGT offers a unique opportunity for targeting intervention to reduce the incidence of NIDDM. This article reviews current evidence for the efficacy of lifestyle intervention programmes involving people with IGT. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Significant racial/ethnic differences exist in the prevalence of hypertension (HTN) and non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). The purpose of this study was to determine if ethnicity (African-American, Hispanic and non-Hispanic white) was related to NIDDM incidence over a maximum follow-up period of 10 years. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTING: A large, urban public health care system serving over 200,000 predominantly minority persons. The system includes nine primary care health centers. PATIENTS: African-American, Hispanic and non-Hispanic white patients with diagnosed hypertension who received primary care in the study setting. METHODS: Medical records of 2,941 hypertensives free of NIDDM at their baseline visit were reviewed to document incident NIDDM during follow-up. Sociodemographic characteristics and physiologic covariates consistently available in the medical record (blood pressure, height, weight, and blood glucose) were also abstracted. RESULTS: The mean age of patients at the baseline visit was 56 years; 67% were female, 63% were African-American. 17% Hispanic, and 20% non-Hispanic white. Two hundred thirty-six incident cases of NIDDM were identified in the cohort. In Cox proportional hazards analysis, the risk of developing NIDDM was not related to ethnicity either in univariate analysis or after adjusting for age, baseline blood glucose, and body mass index (adjusted RR for African Americans compared with whites = .82, 95% CI = .57-1.18; adjusted RR for Hispanics compared with whites = .84, 95% CI = .51-1.38). CONCLUSION: The lack of association between ethnicity and NIDDM risk among hypertensives is unexpected, and may indicate differences in the pathogenetic mechanisms that underlie the development of hypertension and NIDDM in these three ethnic groups. 相似文献

In order to investigate the predictable value of fasting blood glucose (FBG) level for the incidence of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), 638 nondiabetic subjects who were investigated in 1986 (including 341 subjects with normal glucose tolerance and 297 subjects with impaired glucose tolerance) were reexamined in 1992. The results showed that the 6-year-incidence of NIDDM was significantly increased with rising of baseline FBG level. After adjusting for age, sex and body mass index (BMI), proportional hazard regression analysis showed that FBG level in impaired glucose tolerance group was positively associated with the development of NIDDM (P = 0.0001). Subjects with mean FBG level of 5.19 mmol/L had a higher risk of developing NIDDM than subjects with mean FBG level of 4.61 mmol/L (RR 2.1, 95% CI 1.19-3.74, P = 0.01). The risk ratio of NIDDM was further increased in the group with mean FBG level of 6.l5 mmol/L (RR = 2.9, 95% CI 1.79-4.59, P = 0.0001). The result indicates that FBG level is an independent risk factor for the development of NIDDM. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To explore the relation between noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and osteoarthritis (OA) in a population. METHODS: The study population included 632 men and 882 women aged 52-95 years from the Rancho Bernardo community. In 1984-87, participants answered questions about history of diabetes and had a standard oral glucose tolerance (OGTT). In 1988-92, subjects completed a questionnaire about history of arthritis, type of arthritis diagnosed, and presence of joint pain. Nurses examined subjects for presence of Heberden's nodes. Subjects with no history of arthritis were compared to those with a history of OA and other types of arthritis with regard to age, body size, and plasma glucose levels. In addition, subjects were classified by diabetes status to determine differences in the prevalence of arthritis and related characteristics. RESULTS: Neither impaired glucose tolerance nor NIDDM was associated with history of OA, regardless of how inclusive the definition of OA, before or after adjustment for age and maximum lifetime obesity. In age and obesity adjusted analyses, men with a history of OA had lower fasting plasma glucose levels than men with no arthritis (100.2 vs. 103.6 mg/dl, p < 0.05), and men with NIDDM had less hand and hip pain than normoglycemic men (p < 0.05). Heberden's nodes were unrelated to glucose tolerance status. CONCLUSION: This population based study found no positive association between clinical OA and NIDDM defined by OGTT. These results are compatible with community based data examining radiographic OA and history of diabetes. 相似文献

Previous studies have demonstrated an association between low weight at birth and risk of later development of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). It is unknown whether this association may be due to an impact of intrauterine malnutrition per se, or whether it may be due to a coincidence between the putative "NIDDM susceptibility genotype" and a genetically determined low weight at birth. We traced original midwife birthweight record determinations in a group of monozygotic (n = 14 pairs) and dizygotic (n = 14 pairs) twins who phenotypically appeared discordant for NIDDM at a mean age of 67 and 64 years respectively. Birthweights were lower in the NIDDM twins compared with both their identical and non-identical non-diabetic co-twins respectively (p < 0.02 both). Using a similar approach in twin pairs discordant for impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) per se, no significantly decreased birthweight was detected in the IGT twins compared with their non-diabetic co-twins. However, when a larger group of twins with different glucose tolerances were considered, birthweights were lower in twins with abnormal glucose tolerance including both NIDDM and IGT. Furthermore, the twins with the lowest birthweights among the two co-twins had the highest plasma glucose concentrations 120 min after the 75 g oral glucose load (n = 86 pairs, p = 0.02). The study supports the hypothesis that low birthweight and a non-genetically determined intrauterine component such af malnutrition may play a role for the development of NIDDM in twins. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to ascertain the incidence of Type 1 diabetes mellitus in Navarre, an autonomous community in northern Spain. Subjects were patients who presented with diabetes between 1975 and 1991, age range 0-16 years, resident in Navarre at the onset of symptoms. Endocrinologists in outpatient centres and hospitals (both public and private) in Navarre were the primary source of data, while secondary sources were: independent general practitioners, health centre paediatricians and the Child-Youth Diabetics Parents' Association of Navarre. The degree of ascertainment was 97.8%. Average annual incidence of diabetes detected was 9.54/100000 (95% CI 8.2-11.1) in the 0-14 year-old group. The least incidence was observed in 1976 and highest in 1990. The incidence in males (9.71/100000) was higher than in females (7.83/100000). The highest incidence was observed in the 10-14 year-old group (13.70/100000) when analysed by groups. No seasonal variation in the onset of diabetes was observed. These results suggest a significant increase in the incidence of type 1 diabetes between 1975 and 1991. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of acarbose, an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor, on postprandial plasma glucose and insulin and insulin sensitivity in subjects with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Subjects with IGT were randomly treated in a double-blind fashion with placebo (n = 10) or acarbose (n = 8) at 100 mg t.i.d. for 4 months. All subjects were submitted before randomization and at the end of the study to a standardized breakfast and a 12-h daytime plasma glucose and plasma insulin profile, and insulin sensitivity was measured as steady-state plasma glucose (SSPG) using the insulin suppression test. RESULTS: While placebo had no effect on postprandial plasma glucose and plasma insulin incremental area under the curve (AUC) (3.03 +/- 0.5 vs. 3.76 +/- 0.6 mmol.h-1.l-1, P = NS; 1,488 +/- 229 vs. 1,609 +/- 253 pmol.h-1.l-1, P = NS), acarbose resulted in a significant reduction for both glucose (1.44 +/- 0.3 vs. 4.45 +/- 0.9 mmol.h-1.l-1, P = 0.002) and insulin (626.7 +/- 104.3 vs. 1,338.3 +/- 220.5 pmol.h-1.l-1, P = 0.003). The reduction in 12-h plasma glucose and insulin AUC on acarbose (11.2 +/- 2.1 mmol.h-1.l-1 and 7.5 +/- 0.7 nmol.h-1.l-1) was significantly greater than that on placebo (4.0 +/- 1.6 mmol.h-1.l-1 and 0.8 +/- 0.4 nmol.h-1.l-1) (P = 0.014 and 0.041). While SSPG was not affected by placebo (13.9 +/- 0.4 vs. 13.8 +/- 0.3 mmol/l; P = NS), it was significantly improved by acarbose (10.9 +/- 1.4 vs. 13.1 +/- 1.5 mmol/l, P < 0.004) and was also significantly different from placebo at 4 months (P < 0.02). CONCLUSIONS: It is concluded that in subjects with IGT, acarbose treatment decreases postprandial plasma glucose and insulin and improves insulin sensitivity. Acarbose may therefore be potentially useful to prevent the progression of IGT to NIDDM. 相似文献

We examined antepartum clinical characteristics along with measures of glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity, pancreatic beta-cell function, and body composition in Latino women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) for their ability to predict type 2 diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) within 6 months after delivery. A total of 122 islet cell antibody-negative women underwent oral and intravenous glucose tolerance tests (OGTT; IVGTT), hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamps, and measurement of body fat between 29 and 36 weeks' gestation and returned between 1 and 6 months postpartum for a 75-g OGTT. Logistic regression analysis was used to examine the relationship between antepartum variables and glucose tolerance status postpartum. At postpartum testing, 40% of the cohort had normal glucose tolerance, 50% had IGT, and 10% had diabetes by American Diabetes Association criteria. Independent antepartum predictors of postpartum diabetes were the 30-min incremental insulin:glucose ratio during a 75-g OGTT (P = 0.0002) and the total area under the diagnostic 100-g glucose tolerance curve (P = 0.003). Independent predictors of postpartum IGT were a low first-phase IVGTT insulin response (P = 0.0001), a diagnosis of GDM before 22 weeks' gestation (P = 0.003), and weight gain between prepregnancy and the postpartum examination (P = 0.03). All subjects had low insulin sensitivity during late pregnancy, but neither glucose clamp nor minimal model measures of insulin sensitivity in the 3rd trimester were associated with the risk of IGT or diabetes within 6 months' postpartum. These results highlight the importance of pancreatic beta-cell dysfunction, detectable under conditions of marked insulin resistance in late pregnancy, to predict abnormalities of glucose tolerance soon after delivery in pregnancies complicated by GDM. Moreover, the association of postpartum IGT with weight gain and an early gestational age at diagnosis of GDM suggests a role for chronic insulin resistance in mediating hyperglycemia outside the 3rd trimester in women with such a beta-cell defect. 相似文献

Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) is associated with defects in both insulin secretion and action and carries a high risk for conversion to non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Troglitazone, an insulin sensitizing agent, reduces glucose concentrations in subjects with NIDDM and IGT but is not known to affect insulin secretion. We sought to determine the role of beta cell function in mediating improved glucose tolerance. Obese subjects with IGT received 12 wk of either 400 mg daily of troglitazone (n = 14) or placebo (n = 7) in a randomized, double-blind design. Study measures at baseline and after treatment were glucose and insulin responses to a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test, insulin sensitivity index (SI) assessed by a frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test, insulin secretion rates during a graded glucose infusion, and beta cell glucose-sensing ability during an oscillatory glucose infusion. Troglitazone reduced integrated glucose and insulin responses to oral glucose by 10% (P = 0.03) and 39% (P = 0.003), respectively. SI increased from 1.3+/-0.3 to 2.6+/-0.4 x 10(-)5min-1pM-1 (P = 0.005). Average insulin secretion rates adjusted for SI over the glucose interval 5-11 mmol/liter were increased by 52% (P = 0.02), and the ability of the beta cell to entrain to an exogenous oscillatory glucose infusion, as evaluated by analysis of spectral power, was improved by 49% (P = 0.04). No significant changes in these parameters were demonstrated in the placebo group. In addition to increasing insulin sensitivity, we demonstrate that troglitazone improves the reduced beta cell response to glucose characteristic of subjects with IGT. This appears to be an important factor in the observed improvement in glucose tolerance. 相似文献

Since eradication of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is thought to be a preventive measure against stomach cancer, several studies have examined factors associated with the infection. This paper reports the association of the infection with lifestyle factors observed in a hospital-based case-control study. Cases were 140 anti-H. pylori IgG antibody-positive outpatients (75 males and 65 females). Controls were 52 antibody-negative outpatients (22 males and 30 females). Both groups had undergone gastroscopy at Aichi Cancer Center Hospital between February 1995 and February 1997, and lifestyle data collected on the first visit were linked to calculate odds ratios. A strong association was observed with smoking among males; age-adjusted odds ratio (OR) = 7.85, 95% confidence interval (CI), 2.03-30.4. Rice breakfast (OR = 3.74; 95% CI, 1.30-10.8) and soybean paste soup (every day vs. occasionally, OR = 5.24; 95% CI, 1.80-15.2) were also associated with antibody positivity in males, but not in females. In females, pickled Chinese cabbage (> or = 1/week vs. < or = 3/month, OR = 2.82; 95% CI, 1.06-7.48) and lettuce (> or = 1/week vs. < or = 3/month, OR = 2.90; 95% CI, 1.09-7.76) were significantly associated with positivity. Multivariate analysis gave similar estimates for the above factors. Although the association between smoking and H. pylori infection has not been detected in past studies of a general population, except one recent one, this study on outpatients suggested a possible association. Smoking may work as a cofactor disturbing incidental eradication of H. pylori by antibacterial agents administered for other reasons. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Recently, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) introduced new diagnostic criteria. These new criteria are based on fasting plasma glucose levels, avoiding the burdensome oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). We compared the 1997 ADA criteria with the 1985 World Health Organization (WHO) criteria with respect to the prevalence of diabetes and the cardiovascular risk profile in the population of the Hoorn Study RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: The Hoorn Study is a population-based survey of 2,484 men and women, aged 50-75 years. An OGTT was performed and cardiovascular risk factors were determined in 2,378 subjects without known diabetes. Subjects were categorized according to both sets of diagnostic criteria. RESULTS: Although the prevalence of diabetes was similar for both sets of criteria, 47 of 120 (39.2%) subjects who were diagnosed with diabetes according to the 1997 ADA criteria were not classified as having diabetes when using the 1985 WHO criteria. Similarly, of 285 subjects diagnosed with impaired fasting glucose by the 1997 ADA criteria, 195 (68.4%) were classified as having normal glucose tolerance by the 1985 WHO criteria. The overall agreement was poor (kappa 0.33; 95% CI 0.28-0.38). Subjects who were diagnosed as having diabetes by either set of criteria had an adverse cardiovascular risk profile, which was between the cardiovascular risk profiles of concordant normal and concordant diabetic subjects. CONCLUSIONS: In this study both sets of criteria diagnosed a similar number of diabetic subjects, but many of the subjects shifted between glucose intolerance categories. With either set of criteria, a considerable number of subjects at risk of developing diabetes and subjects carrying an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, as reflected by an adverse cardiovascular risk profile, will be missed. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To describe the rationale and design, and to discuss the preliminary screening data, of the Study to Prevent NIDDM (STOP-NIDDM Trial), an international study on the efficacy of the alpha-glucosidase inhibitor acarbose in preventing or delaying the development of type 2 diabetes in a population with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: A total of 1,418 subjects diagnosed with IGT according to the World Health Organization's criteria and having a fasting plasma glucose concentration > or =5.6 mmol/L were randomized in a double-blind fashion to receive either acarbose (100 mg t.i.d.) or placebo for a predictive median follow-up period of 3.9 years. The primary outcome is the development of type 2 diabetes diagnosed using a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test according to the new criteria. The secondary outcomes are changes in blood pressure, lipid profile, insulin sensitivity, cardiovascular events, and morphometric profile. RESULTS: Screening was performed in a high-risk population. As of 1 March 1997, 4,424 subjects had been screened, and data were available for 3,919 (88.5%) subjects. Of these subjects, 1,200 (30.6%) had glucose intolerance. Of the subjects with glucose intolerance, 521 (13.3%) had previously undetected type 2 diabetes, and 679 (17.3%) had IGT. Of the IGT population, 412 (60.7%) subjects were eligible for the study This population had the following characteristics: the mean age was 54.8 years, 52% of the subjects were female, 53% had more than one risk factor for type 2 diabetes, >90% had a family history of diabetes, 78.2% had a BMI > or =27 kg/m2, 47.5% had high blood pressure, 51.2% had dyslipidemia, and 22.8% of the women had a history of gestational diabetes. CONCLUSIONS: Screening of a high-risk population yields one eligible subject per every 10 volunteers screened. This study should definitely answer the question of whether acarbose can prevent or delay the progression of IGT to type 2 diabetes mellitus. 相似文献

We used mouse genetics to model how polygenic thresholds for the transition from impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) to NIDDM are reached. NON/Lt and NZO/Hl are inbred mouse strains selected for IGT and polygenic obesity, respectively. Their F1 male progeny consistently developed NIDDM. Genetic analysis of F2 males from both cross directions identified an NON-derived diabetogenic locus, Nidd 1, on chromosome (Chr) 4 near the leptin receptor. This locus was associated with reduced plasma insulin, increased non-fasted blood glucose, and lower body weight. Another NON-derived diabetogenic locus on Chr 18 (Nidd2) that controls blood glucose was identified. An NZO-derived diabetogenic region on Chr 11 (Nidd3), possibly comprising two separate loci, reduced ability to sustain elevated plasma insulin and significantly reduced weight gain over time. Thus, the diabetogenic synergism between genetic loci from strains separately exhibiting subthreshold defects perturbing glucose homeostasis underscores the likely complexity of the inheritance of obesity-associated forms of NIDDM in humans. 相似文献
