Longer time to peak glucose during the oral glucose tolerance test increases cardiovascular risk score and diabetes prevalence.

ABSTRACT: The pattern of glucose levels during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) may be useful for predicting diabetes or cardiovascular disease (CVD). Our aim was to determine whether the time to peak glucose during the OGTT is associated with CVD risk scores and diabetes.Individuals with impaired fasting glucose (IFG) were enrolled in this observational study. Participants were grouped by the measured time to peak glucose (30, 60, 90 and 120 min) during the 75g OGTT. The primary outcome was 10-year CVD risk scores (using the Framingham risk score calculator). Secondary outcomes evaluated effect of time to peak glucose on prevalence of diabetes and indicators of glucose homeostasis.A total of 125 patients with IFG underwent OGTTs. Framingham 10-year risk score for the 90-min group was 1.7 times higher than for the 60-min group (6.98±6.56% vs. 4.05±4.60%, P = 0.023). Based on multivariate linear regression, time to peak glucose at 90 min was associated with a higher Framingham risk score than 60-min group (? coefficient: 2.043, 95% confidence interval: 0.067-6.008, P = 0.045). The percentages of patients with HbA1c ?6.5%, isolated post-challenge hyperglycemia (IPH) and diabetes (combined IPH and HbA1c ?6.5%) were significantly increased with longer times to peak glucose. Prevalence of diabetes was higher in the 90-min group than in the 60-min group (31.5% vs. 5.7%, P = 0.001).In subjects with IFG, those with a longer time to peak glucose had a higher Framingham 10-year risk score and were associated with a greater likelihood of IPH and diabetes.

Project description:BackgroundThe burden of diabetes is increasing in sub-Saharan Africa, including among people living with HIV. We assessed the prevalence of diabetes and the roles of HIV, antiretroviral therapy (ART) and traditional risk factors among adults in Tanzania.MethodsWe analysed diabetes-relevant baseline data from 1,947 adult participants in the CICADA study in Mwanza, Tanzania: 655 HIV-uninfected, 956 HIV-infected ART-naïve, and 336 HIV-infected persons on ART. WHO guidelines for haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) were used to define diabetes and prediabetes. Risk factors were evaluated using multinomial logistic regression analysis. Relative risk ratios (RRR) were generated comparing participants with diabetes and prediabetes against the reference of those with no diabetes.ResultsMean age was 41 (SD 12) years; 59% were women. The prevalence of diabetes was 13% by HbA1c and 6% by OGTT, with partial overlap among participants identified by the two tests. Relative to HIV-uninfected, HIV-infected ART-naïve persons had increased relative risks of diabetes (HbA1c: RRR = 1.95, 95% CI 1.25-3.03; OGTT: RRR = 1.90, 95% CI 0.96-3.73) and prediabetes (HbA1c: RRR = 2.89, 95% CI 1.93-4.34; OGTT: RRR = 1.61, 95% CI 1.22-2.13). HIV-infected participants on ART showed increased risk of prediabetes (RRR 1.80, 95% CI 1.09, 2.94) by HbA1c, but not diabetes. CD4 count < 200 cell/μL at recruitment increased risk and physical activity decreased risk of diabetes by both HbA1c and OGTT.ConclusionsThe prevalence of diabetes was high, especially among HIV-infected ART-naïve adults. Being more physically active was associated with lower risk of diabetes. HbA1c and OGTT identified different participants as having diabetes or prediabetes. Overall, the finding of high burden of diabetes among HIV-infected persons suggests that health systems should consider integrating diabetes screening and treatment in HIV clinics to optimize the care of HIV patients and improve their health outcomes.

Project description:Insulin secretion following ingestion of a carbohydrate load affects a multitude of metabolic pathways that simultaneously change direction and quantity of interorgan fluxes of sugars, lipids and amino acids. In the present study, we aimed at identifying markers associated with differential responses to an OGTT a population of healthy adults. By use of three metabolite profiling platforms, we assessed these postprandial responses of a total of 202 metabolites in plasma of 72 healthy volunteers undergoing comprehensive phenotyping and of which half enrolled into a weight-loss program over a three-month period. A standard oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) served as dietary challenge test to identify changes in postprandial metabolite profiles. Despite classified as healthy according to WHO criteria, two discrete clusters (A and B) were identified based on the postprandial glucose profiles with a balanced distribution of volunteers based on gender and other measures. Cluster A individuals displayed 26% higher postprandial glucose levels, delayed glucose clearance and increased fasting plasma concentrations of more than 20 known biomarkers of insulin resistance and diabetes previously identified in large cohort studies. The volunteers identified by canonical postprandial responses that form cluster A may be called pre-pre-diabetics and defined as "at risk" for development of insulin resistance. Moreover, postprandial changes in selected fatty acids and complex lipids, bile acids, amino acids, acylcarnitines and sugars like mannose revealed marked differences in the responses seen in cluster A and cluster B individuals that sustained over the entire challenge test period of 240 min. Almost all metabolites, including glucose and insulin, returned to baseline values at the end of the test (at 240 min), except a variety of amino acids and here those that have been linked to diabetes development. Analysis of the corresponding metabolite profile in a fasting blood sample may therefore allow for early identification of these subjects at risk for insulin resistance without the need to undergo an OGTT.
