title: [Hyperglycemia in toxic oil syndrome].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To know the prevalence of hyperglycemia in patients with Spanish toxic oil syndrome (TOS). To analyze clinical, biochemical, and pathological associated factors. To compare them with a control group.
  
  
  METHODS
  Case and controls study.
  
  
  METHODS
  Primary Health Care. XI Sanitary district in Madrid.
  
  
  METHODS
  734 cases with toxic oil syndrome. 1474 control subjects.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Prevalence of impaired glucose tolerance was 2.95% in TOS and 0.07% in control subjects (p < 0.001; OR, 7.55; IC, 291-19.57). Diabetes No insulin treated was 7.78% in TOS and 3.26% in controls (p < 0.001; OR 250; IC 1.62-3.87). Diabetes insulin treated was 1.99% in TOS and 0.47% in controls (p < 0.01; OR, 4.98; IC, 1.80-13.78). Prevalence of diabetes mellitus in TOS was 9.77 and 3.67% (p < 0.001; OR, 2.85; IC, 1.90-4.25) in controls. The pancreatic lesions found in the necropsies were vasculitis type TOS (4 cases) and endothelial vascular lesions (1 case).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The prevalence of hyperglycemia in TOS reached 13%, where as in the control subjects, it was 3.8% (p < 0.001). The pancreatic lesions detected in deceased TOS patients did not coincide with those commonly described in diabetes mellitus.
