Abstract
Aim: To analysis the change of electrogastrogram (EGG) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and evaluate the prevalence of abnormal gastric electrical rhythm (AGER) and its relative influencing factors.
Methods: A total of 65 patients with T2DM hospitalized at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from Dec. 2020 to Dec. 2021 were included in the cross-sectional study. General information, clinical data, and medical history data of all study subjects, including name, gender, body mass index (BMI), duration of diabetes, anti-diabetic therapies, high blood pressure (HBP) history, smoking history, and medication history, were completely collected. The results of laboratory tests, including biochemical parameters, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting C-peptide, 2 h postprandial C-peptide, 24 h urine total protein (24 hUTP), urine microalbumin creatinine ratio (UACR) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were recorded. EGG, Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index (GCSI), gastric emptying ultrasound, fundus examination, carotid artery ultrasonography, cardiac autonomic function test, heart rate variability (HRV) were all examined and recorded as well. According to the results of EGG, the subjects were divided into normal gastric electrical rhythm (NGER) group and abnormal gastric electrical rhythm (AGER) group.
Results: (1) Fasting blood glucose (FBG), HbA1c, the presence of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) and diabetic cardiac autonomic neuropathy (DCAN) were significantly higher in the AGER group (p < 0.05). Low frequency (LF) and high frequency (HF), the indicators of HRV, were significantly lower in the AGER group (p < 0.05). In addition, the prevalence of feeling excessively full after meals, loss of appetite, and stomach or belly visibly larger after meals of gastrointestinal symptoms of gastroparesis were significantly higher in the AGER group (p < 0.05). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that FBG and the prevalence of DCAN were the independent risk factors.
Conclusion: AGER was associated with high FBG and the presence of DCAN. EGG examination is recommended for patients with gastrointestinal symptoms and clues of DCAN.
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.
