Relationship between glucose fluctuation and the degree of nervous dysfunction of the acute cerebral infarction in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus / 中华老年医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the relationshipbetween glucose fluctuation and the degree of nervous dysfunction of the acute cerebral infarction in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods 30 patients with ACI and T2DM were chosen as observation group and 30 patients with T2DM without ACI as the control group.Glucose fluctuation in all patients were monitored for 72h with the continuous glucose monitoring system(CGMS).High frequency ultrasound was used to detect the carotid intima-media thickness (IMT).The levels of blood lipids,glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c),homocysteinemia(Hcy) and C-reactive protein(C-RP) were detected in all the patients.The national institute of health stroke scale(NIHSS) was performed.The correlation between NIHSS and other observed factors were analyzed.Results (1)The mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (MAGE),blood glucose standard deviation(SDBG),absolute means of daily differences(MODD),the largest amplitude of glycemic excursions(LAGE),blood lipids,HbA1c,Hcy,C-RP and IMT were statistically significant different between the two groups (all P＜0.05); (2)The MAGE,SDBG,IMT,Hey,C-RP,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol-C (LDL-C),and systolic blood pressure(SBP) were correlated with the NIHSS score (all P＜0.05) ;(3)With NIHSS score as the dependent variable and the indicators above as the independent variables,the multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that the MAGE,IMT,Hcy came into the final equation.Conclusions The blood glucose fluctuation is probably the influential factor on the development of acute cerebral infarction in T2DM patients.Therapy for lowering blood glucose smoothly should be established as soon as possible to recover the nerve function after cerebral infarction and reduce the incidence of stroke recurrence.
