[Normoglycemic control by artificial pancreas in patients with pancreatic diabetes or with primary diabetes mellitus--analysis of patterns of insulin infusion and nocturnal glucose infusion].
It has been reported that patients with pancreatic diabetes (PD) show nocturnal hypoglycemia frequently when compared to patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Present study was carried out to compare patterns of insulin infusion and nocturnal glucose infusion under normoglycemic control in between PD and DM. Eleven PD patients whose onset of diabetes mellitus appeared after the onset of chronic pancreatitis (PD group), and 10 patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus without pancreatic disease (DM group) were studied. To control the blood glucose level, a closed loop insulin delivery system (Biostator GCIIS, Miles Laboratories) was used. 24 hours infused amount of insulin in PD group was not different from that in DM group, while patterns of insulin infusion in both groups were different. Thus, most of 24 h-infused insulin were given during 2 hours postprandial period in PD group, while in DM group, insulin was given mostly as a basal infusion. In this study glucose infusion occur in a state of hypoglycemia (less than 90 mg/dl). 7 of 11 in PD group and 2 of 10 in DM group had glucose infusion which mostly occurred at a night time.
