Delayed glucose peak and elevated 1-hour glucose on the oral glucose tolerance test identify youth with cystic fibrosis with lower oral disposition index.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Alternate methods for characterizing oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTT) have emerged as superior to the 2-hour glucose in identifying individuals at risk for type 2 diabetes. The significance of these methods in cystic fibrosis (CF) is unclear. We compared 3 OGTT classifications in youth with CF: 1. curve shape (biphasic vs. monophasic), 2. time to glucose peak (≤30minutes vs. >30minutes), 3. 1-hour glucose (1hG) <155 mg/dL vs. ≥155 mg/dL to traditional OGTT criteria to determine which best identifies lower oral disposition index (oDI), pulmonary function, and body mass index (BMI).

Methods

Youth 10-18 years with CF, not on insulin, underwent 2-hour OGTT. Glucoses were classified by traditional criteria and 3 alternate methods as normal (biphasic curve, glucose peak ≤30minutes, and/or 1hG <155 mg/dL) or abnormal (monophasic curve, glucose peak >30minutes, and/or 1hG ≥155 mg/dL). oDI was calculated [1/fasting insulin*(ΔInsulin_0-₃₀ _min/ΔGlucose_0-_30 min)]. Mean oDI, BMI, forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), and forced vital capacity (FVC) were compared by OGTT classification.

Results

Fifty-two youth with CF participated (mean±SD age 13±4years; 37% male; BMI z-score 0.0±0.8; FEV1 88±16.3%; FVC 97±14.8%). Late time to peak glucose and 1hG ≥155 mg/dL identified individuals with lower oDI (p=0.01); traditional OGTT criteria for prediabetes did not. No OGTT classification identified individuals with worse BMI nor pulmonary function. oDI was not associated with BMI, FEV1, or FVC.

Conclusions

Alternate OGTT measures including time to peak glucose and 1hG better identify oDI abnormalities than traditional criteria. Further studies are required to determine whether these alternate methods identify individuals with CF at risk for future clinical decline.

Project description:Aims/hypothesisThe aim of this study was to determine the mechanism(s) for hypoglycaemia occurring late following oral glucose loading in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF).MethodsA 3 h 75 g OGTT was performed in 27 non-diabetic adults with CF who were classified based on this test as experiencing hypoglycaemia (glucose <3.3 mmol/l with or without symptoms or glucose <3.9 mmol/l with symptoms, n = 14) or not (n = 13). Beta cell function, incretin (glucagon-like peptide-1 [GLP-1] and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide [GIP]) and counterregulatory hormone responses (glucagon, catecholamines, growth hormone and cortisol) were assessed.ResultsThe two groups did not differ in age, weight or BMI. There were more male participants and individuals with pancreatic exocrine insufficiency in the hypoglycaemia group. Fasting plasma glucose did not differ between the two groups (5.3 ± 0.16 vs 5.3 ± 0.10 mmol/l). Both fasting insulin (20.7 ± 2.9 vs 36.5 ± 4.8 pmol/l; p = 0.009) and C-peptide (0.38 ± 0.03 vs 0.56 ± 0.05 nmol/l; p = 0.002) were lower in those who experienced hypoglycaemia. Following glucose ingestion, glucose concentrations were significantly lower in the hypoglycaemia group from 135 min onwards, with a nadir of 3.2 ± 0.2 vs 4.8 ± 0.3 mmol/l at 180 min (p < 0.001). The test was terminated early in three participants because of a glucose level <2.5 mmol/l. Insulin and C-peptide concentrations were also lower in the hypoglycaemia group, while incretin hormone responses were not different. Modelling demonstrated that those experiencing hypoglycaemia were more insulin sensitive (439 ± 17.3 vs 398 ± 13.1 ml min-1 m-2, p = 0.074 based on values until 120 min [n = 14]; 512 ± 18.9 vs 438 ± 15.5 ml min-1 m-2, p = 0.006 based on values until 180 min [n = 11]). In line with their better insulin sensitivity, those experiencing hypoglycaemia had lower insulin secretion rates (ISRfasting: 50.8 ± 3.2 vs 74.0 ± 5.9 pmol min-1 m-2, p = 0.002; ISROGTT: 44.9 ± 5.0 vs 63.4 ± 5.2 nmol/m2, p = 0.018) and beta cell glucose sensitivity (47.4 ± 4.5 vs 79.2 ± 7.5 pmol min-1 m-2 [mmol/l]-1, p = 0.001). Despite the difference in glucose concentrations, there were no significant increases in glucagon, noradrenaline, cortisol or growth hormone levels. Adrenaline increased by only 66% and 61% above baseline at 165 and 180 min when glucose concentrations were 3.8 ± 0.2 and 3.2 ± 0.2 mmol/l, respectively.Conclusions/interpretationHypoglycaemia occurring late during an OGTT in people with CF was not associated with the expected counterregulatory hormone response, which may be a consequence of more advanced pancreatic dysfunction/destruction.
