[Diagnosis of diabetes mellitus and disorders of glucose tolerance in patients after acute pancreatitis].
The study aimed at evaluating an incidence of diabetes mellitus and carbohydrate tolerance disorders as well as insulinemia in patients with the history of the acute pancreatitis. Baseline glycemia was determined in 50 patients with a history of the acute pancreatitis and in 15 healthy individuals (aged between 18 and 65 years). Blood sugar was then determined 30, 60, 90 and 180 minutes following loading with 75 g of glucose. Fasting insulinemia and that following loading with 75 g glucose were determined at the same time period. Diabetes mellitus was diagnosed in 6 patients (12%) whereas carbohydrate tolerance in 4 patients (8%). A decrease in insulin response to carbohydrates was noted in 36 patients (72%) with a history of the acute pancreatitis in comparison with the control group. The obtained results suggest that the acute pancreatitis significantly decreases endocrine functioning of the pancreas. Therefore, metabolism of carbohydrates should be checked particularly in the individuals with a history of the acute pancreatitis without the symptoms of both diabetes mellitus and sugar tolerance disorders but with the signs of decreased insulin response to carbohydrates.
