          Abstract

          OBJETIVO: Os principais objetivos são determinar a associação entre os parâmetros clínicos e demográficos e os diferentes índices de secreção e resistência insulínica em indivíduos aparentemente saudáveis, sem conhecimento prévio de seu grau de tolerância à glicose. PACIENTES E MÉTODOS: Submetemos ao teste oral de tolerância à glicose (TOTG), no período de fevereiro a agosto de 2003, 105 indivíduos com média de idade de 33,4 ± 1,4 anos, sendo 57,1% do sexo feminino, subdividindo-os em 4 grupos: grupo 0 (normais): indivíduos com IMC < 25 e metabolismo glicídico normal, grupo 1 (obesos): IMC > 25 e metabolismo glicídico normal, grupo 2 (IFG): glicemia de jejum alterada e grupo 3 (IOG): intolerância oral à glicose. RESULTADOS: Encontramos diferença estatística para todas as variáveis analisadas durante o TOTG dentre os 4 grupos de indivíduos: glicemias de jejum e em 2 horas (p < 0,05; p < 0,05), valor de pico (p < 0,05), delta (p = 0,02), percentual de incremento (p = 0,047), área sob a curva (p < 0,05) e tempo de pico da glicose (p = 0,022). Não encontramos diferença para a velocidade de incremento da glicose, assim como para nenhuma variável da curva de insulina. Em relação aos índices de secreção insulínica, não houve significância estatística para os índices insulinogênico ou delta, porém estes tornaram-se significantes após correção da secreção pela resistência insulínica (p = 0,008). Quanto aos índices de resistência insulínica, os índices HOMA e QUICKI foram estatisticamente significativos (p = 0,005; p = 0,005, respectivamente), assim como a relação glicose/insulina em jejum (p = 0,053). CONCLUSÃO: Apesar do tamanho limitado da amostra, podemos inferir que indivíduos com intolerância à glicose em jejum e pós-prandial possivelmente estão em momentos diferentes da história natural da doença. Nossos dados demonstram que os melhores índices para a avaliação de resistência insulínica são o HOMA e o QUICKI, e que os índices de avaliação da secreção pancreática devem ser corrigidos para o grau de resistência insulínica, de modo a refletir melhor a história natural do diabetes mellitus.

          AIM AND METHODS: Our main aim was to determine the association between clinical, demographical parameters and different insulin resistance and secretion indices in apparently healthy subjects, without previous knowledge of their own level of glucose tolerance. For that purpose, we evaluated 105 individuals from February to August 2003 by means of OGTT, aged 33.4 ± 1.4 years old, 57.1% female. We allocated them in four groups: group 0 (normal): individuals with BMI < 25 Kg/m² and normal glucose metabolism, group 1 (obese): BMI > 25 Kg/m² and normal glucose metabolism, group 2 (IFG): impaired fasting glucose and group 3 (IGT): impaired glucose tolerance. RESULTS: We have found statistical difference on all variables during OGTT between all groups: fasting glucose (p < 0.05), 2-hour glucose (p < 0.05), glucose peak value (p < 0.05), glucose delta (p = 0.02), glucose incremental percentage (p = 0.047), area under curve (p < 0.05), and glucose peak time (p = 0.022). We have not found difference on any variable in insulin curves or on glucose incremental velocity. Regarding insulin secretion indices there were no statistical significance in insulinogenic or delta indices, but they became significant after being corrected by insulin resistance (p = 0.008). When we evaluated insulin resistance alone, by using HOMA and QUICKI indices and the fasting glucose to insulin index, we have found statistical significance (p = 0.005; p = 0.005; p = 0.053). CONCLUSION: Although studying a small sample, we could suggest that individuals with impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance are in different stages of diabetes natural history disease. We found out that the best indices of insulin resistance are both HOMA and QUICKI. We also suggest that pancreatic secretion indices should be corrected by the insulin resistance, which could best reflect type 2 diabetes natural history.

          Banting lecture 1988. Role of insulin resistance in human disease.

          G M Reaven (1988)
          Resistance to insulin-stimulated glucose uptake is present in the majority of patients with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and in approximately 25% of nonobese individuals with normal oral glucose tolerance. In these conditions, deterioration of glucose tolerance can only be prevented if the beta-cell is able to increase its insulin secretory response and maintain a state of chronic hyperinsulinemia. When this goal cannot be achieved, gross decompensation of glucose homeostasis occurs. The relationship between insulin resistance, plasma insulin level, and glucose intolerance is mediated to a significant degree by changes in ambient plasma free-fatty acid (FFA) concentration. Patients with NIDDM are also resistant to insulin suppression of plasma FFA concentration, but plasma FFA concentrations can be reduced by relatively small increments in insulin concentration. Consequently, elevations of circulating plasma FFA concentration can be prevented if large amounts of insulin can be secreted. If hyperinsulinemia cannot be maintained, plasma FFA concentration will not be suppressed normally, and the resulting increase in plasma FFA concentration will lead to increased hepatic glucose production. Because these events take place in individuals who are quite resistant to insulin-stimulated glucose uptake, it is apparent that even small increases in hepatic glucose production are likely to lead to significant fasting hyperglycemia under these conditions. Although hyperinsulinemia may prevent frank decompensation of glucose homeostasis in insulin-resistant individuals, this compensatory response of the endocrine pancreas is not without its price. Patients with hypertension, treated or untreated, are insulin resistant, hyperglycemic, and hyperinsulinemic. In addition, a direct relationship between plasma insulin concentration and blood pressure has been noted. Hypertension can also be produced in normal rats when they are fed a fructose-enriched diet, an intervention that also leads to the development of insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia. The development of hypertension in normal rats by an experimental manipulation known to induce insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia provides further support for the view that the relationship between the three variables may be a causal one.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

              Loss of early insulin secretion leads to postprandial hyperglycaemia.

              A loss of early-phase insulin response is common in Type II diabetic patients and in people with impaired glucose metabolism. It is hypothesized that this alteration is not simply a marker for the risk of developing diabetes, rather it is a an important pathogenetic mechanism causing excessive postprandial hyperglycaemia. Relevant literature on the epidemiology, physiopathology, and therapeutic intervention related to loss of early insulin secretion and postprandial hyperglycaemia has been analysed. In response to intravenous glucose, insulin secretion is biphasic. This behaviour translates as a rapid release of insulin into the blood stream in response to the ingestion of carbohydrates or a mixed meal. The rapid increase in portal insulin concentration and the avid binding of the hormone to its receptor on liver cell membranes, account for a prompt suppression of endogenous glucose production and reduction of the rate of increase in plasma glucose concentrations. This has been supported by experimental studies carried out in both animals and humans: the selective abolition of early insulin secretion in healthy subjects results in impaired glucose tolerance, excessive glucose excursions, and possible hampering of the thermic effects of ingested carbohydrates. In non-diabetic subjects, the loss of early insulin secretion is a determinant for developing diabetes. The critical role of the early-phase insulin response in determining postprandial hyperglycaemia, is supported by an amelioration of glucose tolerance by restoring the acute rise in plasma insulin concentrations after the ingestion of both glucose and a mixed meal. This amelioration in plasma glucose profile can prevent late hyperglycaemia and hyperinsulinaemia. Therapeutic approaches aimed at restoring a physiological pattern of insulin secretion could prove effective in reducing postprandial glucose excursions particularly in the early stage of Type II diabetes.
