Abstract
Background: Despite enormous advances in diabetes treatment, women with type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM) still experience delayed menarche, menstrual irregularities, fewer pregnancies, and a higher rate of stillbirths compared to women without the disease. Due to the fact that type 1 DM occurs at a young age, the preservation of reproductive health is one of the most important goals of treatment.
Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between different glycemic profiles and changes in the pro-oxidant-antioxidant balance and ovarian follicular apparatus in reproductive-age patients with type 1 DM.
Methods: We examined 50 reproductive-age (19-38 years) women with type 1 DM with a disease duration of at least ten years. Carbohydrate metabolism was assessed with the continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) concentration measurement. CGM was performed using the FreeStyle Libre flash glucose monitoring system (Abbott Diabetes Care, Witney, UK). In each patient, malondialdehyde level, catalase activity and 3-nitrotyrosine level in the blood serum were determined. To assess the ovarian function, we measured the ovarian volume, the antral follicle count, and the serum levels of anti-Müllerian hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone. All patients were divided into four groups (glucotypes) based on the CGM results. Group 1 included type 1 DM patients with satisfactory compensation of carbohydrate metabolism; group 2 consisted of patients with frequent hypoglycemic conditions and pathological glucose variability; group 3 included individuals with prolonged hyperglycemic conditions and maximum HbA1c levels; and group 4 comprised patients with the glycemic profile characterized by all the presented types of dysglycemia (intermittent glycemia).
Results: We revealed a negative correlation between serum catalase activity and time of hypoglycemic conditions in patients with type 1 DM based on the CGM results (rs = -0.47, p < 0.01). In group 4 (intermittent glycemia), patients demonstrated the lowest serum catalase activity and increased serum 3-nitrotyrosine level, while in group 3, women with chronic hyperglycemia (HbA1c 8.4 [8.1; 9.9]%; 68 [65; 85] mmol/mol) had a moderate change in antioxidant defense and oxidative stress parameters. Correlation analysis of ovarian volume, the antral follicle count, and the serum anti-Müllerian hormone level in type 1 DM women with different glycemic profiles established a negative relationship (rs = -0.82, p < 0.05) between the antral follicle count and glucose variability in group 1, a positive relationship (rs = 0.68, p < 0.05) between ovarian volume and glucose variability in group 2, and a positive relationship (rs = 0.88, p < 0.05) between ovarian volume and time of hypoglycemic conditions, which, according to the CGM results, amounted to a critical value of 57.5 [40.0; 82.0]%.
Conclusions: The data obtained indicate the relationship between the ovarian volume, serum anti-Müllerian hormone level, the antral follicle count and oxidative stress parameters not only in patients with hyperglycemia, but also in those with hypoglycemic conditions, as well as with pathological glucose variability.
期刊介绍：
Well-established as a major journal in today’s rapidly advancing experimental and clinical research areas, Endocrine publishes original articles devoted to basic (including molecular, cellular and physiological studies), translational and clinical research in all the different fields of endocrinology and metabolism. Articles will be accepted based on peer-reviews, priority, and editorial decision. Invited reviews, mini-reviews and viewpoints on relevant pathophysiological and clinical topics, as well as Editorials on articles appearing in the Journal, are published. Unsolicited Editorials will be evaluated by the editorial team. Outcomes of scientific meetings, as well as guidelines and position statements, may be submitted. The Journal also considers special feature articles in the field of endocrine genetics and epigenetics, as well as articles devoted to novel methods and techniques in endocrinology.
Endocrine covers controversial, clinical endocrine issues. Meta-analyses on endocrine and metabolic topics are also accepted. Descriptions of single clinical cases and/or small patients studies are not published unless of exceptional interest. However, reports of novel imaging studies and endocrine side effects in single patients may be considered. Research letters and letters to the editor related or unrelated to recently published articles can be submitted.
Endocrine covers leading topics in endocrinology such as neuroendocrinology, pituitary and hypothalamic peptides, thyroid physiological and clinical aspects, bone and mineral metabolism and osteoporosis, obesity, lipid and energy metabolism and food intake control, insulin, Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, hormones of male and female reproduction, adrenal diseases pediatric and geriatric endocrinology, endocrine hypertension and endocrine oncology.
