RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the difference in left ventricular dysfunction between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with hyperlipidemia and those without hyperlipidemia, and analyze the application value of three-dimensional speckle tracking technology.Methods:The clinical data of 70 patients with T2DM admitted to Heji Hospital Affiliated to Changzhi Medical College from January 2020 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Among these patients, 35 patients had hyperlipidemia and 35 patients had no hyperlipidemia. At the same time, 40 healthy subjects who concurrently underwent health checkups in the same hospital were included as healthy controls. All subjects underwent routine cardiac ultrasound and 3D-STE examinations. General clinical information and left ventricular function-related parameters, including global longitudinal strain, global circumferential strain, global area strain, and global radial strain were compared between healthy controls and T2DM patients with hyperlipidemia and those without hyperlipidemia.Results:The proportion of left ventricular remodeling increased in T2DM patients without hyperlipidemia, and the proportion of left ventricular hypertrophy was the highest in T2DM patients with hyperlipidemia. Global longitudinal strain and global circumferential strain in T2DM patients without hyperlipidemia were (-16.97 ± 2.59)% and (-17.41 ± 2.50)%, respectively, which were significantly higher than (-18.86 ± 2.46)% and (-18.71 ± 2.92)% in healthy controls ( t = 0.95, 0.57, both P < 0.05). Global longitudinal strain, global circumferential strain, and global area strain in T2DM patients with hyperlipidemia were (-14.98 ± 3.15)%, (-15.80 ± 3.16)%, (-27.17 ± 4.54)%, respectively, which were significantly higher than (-18.86 ± 2.46)%, (-18.71 ± 2.92)%, (-30.62 ± 4.02)% in healthy controls ( t = 0.46, 1.37, 0.98, all P < 0.05) and (-16.97 ± 2.59)%, (-17.41 ± 2.50)%, (-30.06 ± 3.59)% in T2DM patients without hyperlipidemia ( t = 0.37, 1.02, 0.77, all P < 0.05). Global radial strain in T2DM patients with hyperlipidemia was significantly higher than [(51.49 ± 8.94)%, t = 1.35, P < 0.05] in healthy controls and [(47.71± 8.46)%, t = 0.98, P < 0.05] in T2DM patients without hyperlipidemia. In patients with T2DM, fasting blood glucose and hyperlipidemia were independently correlated with all strain-related parameters. Conclusion:Hyperlipidemia can aggravate left ventricular remodeling and dysfunction in patients with T2DM and 3D-STE is one of the examination methods for subclinical left ventricular remodeling and dysfunction in T2DM patients with or without hyperlipidemia.
RESUMO
Objective:Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology is used to compare the advantages of insulin degludec (IDeg) as a basal insulin regimen compared with insulin glargine (IGlar) in the treatment of adult type 1 diabetes mellitus.Methods:30 adult patients with T1DM admitted to Heji Hospital Affiliated to Changzhi Medical College from September 2019 to December 2020 were screened. According to the random number table method, the patients were randomly divided into two groups (insulin degludec group and insulin glargine group) at a ratio of 1∶1, respectively treated with IDeg, IGlar and aspartate insulin for 12 weeks. The main outcome measures were the coefficient of variation of blood glucose (CV), mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (MAGE), time in range (TIR), time above range (TAR) and time below range (TBR). The secondary outcome measures were mean blood glucose (MBG), standard deviation of blood glucose (SD), fasting blood glucose (FPG), 2 h postprandial blood glucose (2 h BG), hemoglobin A1c (HbA 1c), means of daily differences (MOOD), and the frequency of hypoglycemic events. Results:At 12 weeks of treatment, the HbA 1c, FPG, 2 h BG, MBG, SD, CV and MAGE of insulin degludec group were lower than those of insulin glargine group, with statistically significant difference (all P<0.05). The TIR in the insulin degludec group was significantly higher than that in the insulin glargine group [73(63, 75)% vs 43(28, 63)%, P<0.001], and the TAR was lower than that in the glycerine group [25(17, 23)% vs 35(33, 64)%, P=0.003]. From the curve spectrum of blood glucose level of the two groups, the stability of blood glucose in the insulin degludec group was better than that in the insulin glargine group. After 12 weeks of treatment, 8 cases (8/15) in insulin degludec group had HbA 1c<7.0%, and 4 cases (4/15) in insulin glargine group had HbA 1c<7.0%, without statistically significant difference ( P=0.264). There were 7 cases (7/15) in the insulin degludec group and 1 case (1/15) in the insulin glargine group who achieved high quality blood glucose control, with statistically significant difference ( P=0.035). At the 12th week of outpatient follow-up, the incidence of nocturnal hypoglycemic events in insulin degludec group was significantly lower than that in insulin glargine group (4/15 vs 11/15, P=0.027). Conclusions:Compared with insulin glargine, insulin degludec can achieve higher blood glucose compliance rate, lower blood glucose level and reduce blood glucose fluctuations in patients with type 1 diabetes.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and correlation of adult primary nephrotic syndrome (PNS) with thyroid dysfunction,and early identify high-risk adult PNS patients with abnormal thyroid function by clinical data.Methods The clinical data of 101 adult PNS patients in Heji Hospital Affiliated to Changzhi Medical College from March 2015 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the thyroid function,the patients were divided into 2 groups:normal thyroid function group (67 cases) and thyroid dysfunction group (34 cases),including 9 cases with low triiodothyronine (T3) syndrome and 25 cases with subclinical hypothyroidism.The clinical data were compared,and the correlation between thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and 24 h urinary protein,blood albumin and systolic blood pressure were analyzed.Results The incidence of thyroid dysfunction in adult PNS patients was 33.66% (34/101),including 21 cases of membranous nephropathy,8 cases of minimal change disease,4 cases of IgA nephropathy and 1 case of membranoproliferative nephritis.The 24 h urinary protein in thyroid dysfunction group was significantly higher than that in normal thyroid function group:(8.76 ± 3.62) g vs.(6.96 ± 3.43) g,the albumin was significantly lower than that in normal thyroid function group:(21.82 ± 4.89) g/L vs.(24.49 ± 4.14) g/L,and there were statistical differences (P<0.05 or <0.01);there was no significant difference in gender composition,age,course of disease,systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,body mass index,hemoglobin,platelet,creatinine,cystatin C,fasting blood glucose,total cholesterol,triacylglycerol,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),fibrinogen,complement C3,IgG,IgM,IgA,PNS types and comorbidities between 2 groups (P>0.05).The results of subgroup analysis results showed that the systolic blood pressure in subclinical hypothyroidism patients of thyroid dysfunction group was significantly higher than that in normal thyroid function group and the low T3 syndrome patients of thyroid dysfunction group:(148.16 ± 18.09) mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa) vs.(139.55 ± 18.77) and (127.78 ± 16.81) mmHg,the 24 h urinary protein was significantly higher than that in normal thyroid function group:(9.00 ± 3.64) g vs.(6.96 ± 3.43) g,the albumin was significantly lower than that in normal thyroid function group:(21.71 ± 5.26) g/L vs.(24.49 ± 4.14) g/L,and there were statistical differences (P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis result showed that TSH had no correlation with 24 h urinary protein and systolic blood pressure (r =0.193 and 0.072,P =0.053 and 0.472);however TSH was negatively correlated with albumin (r =-0.340,P =0.001).Conelusions In adult PNS patients with thyroid dysfunction,membranous nephropathy is the most common,followed by minimal change disease.The systolic blood pressure in PNS patients with subclinical hypothyroidism is significantly higher than that in patients with normal thyroid function and low T3 syndrome.In adult PNS patients,the lower the blood albumin is,the more likely they have thyroid dysfunction.
