[Strategies for early detection of the risk of type II (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes in 1st degree relatives of patients with this disease].
The present study included two groups of subjects: I. the adult offspring of parents with conjugal type 2 diabetes (n = 77; age range 18-59 yrs and mean age 38 +/- 0.8 yrs; BMI range 18.9-40.3 kg/m2 and mean value 26.6 +/- 0.6 kg/m2); and II. the adult offspring having one parent with type 2 diabetes: either father (n = 83-53%) or mother (n = 74-47%). The age range of the latter group was 21-64 yrs, mean age 41 +/- 0.8 yrs; BMI range was 17.6-46.4 kg/m2, and mean value 26.8 +/- 0.4 kg/m2. The normal glucose tolerance of the "healthy" parent was verified with the OGGT evaluated by the WHO and ADA criteria. In all offspring the same test (75 g) was performed, and glucose in venous blood and insulin (IRI) in serum were determined on fasting and at 30, 60 and 120 min of the test. In fasting state the levels of serum lipids (triglycerides, total and LDL and HDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein AI and B) were also measured. In the group I unknown diabetes mellitus was discovered in 4 cases (4%): in 3 according to the WHO/ADA criteria and in one case evaluated by the ADA criteria), in 19 subjects (25%) IGT was found in 16 isolated and in 3 associated with isolated fasting glycaemia (IFG), and only in one case (1%) the isolated IFG was ascertained. In the group II diabetes was discovered according to the ADA criteria in 4 persons (2.5%), IGT in 29 subjects (18.5%), of whom 8 had also IFG. In this subgroup 16 subjects had diabetic father and 13 diabetic mother. The isolated IFG had 7 offspring (4.4%), of whom 2 had diabetic father and 5 diabetic mother. Apart from glycaemia, other parameters didn't disclose difference between the offspring of diabetic father and diabetic mother. However, considering these parameters together for the whole group II, it was found that the offspring with IGT, isolated and associated with IFG, differed from the remaining ones with significantly higher BMI, higher systolic blood pressure, higher 2-h serum IRI, and higher levels of serum triglycerides, total cholesterol and ApoB.


CONCLUSIONS
Measurement of isolated fasting glycaemia and its interpretation by the ADA criteria is inadequate in studies aiming at early detection of glucose intolerance in subjects with familial increased risk of type 2 diabetes and should include also the determination of the 2-h glycemia of the OGTT evaluated according to the WHO criteria. On the other hand, the determination of fasting glycaemia and its evaluation by the ADA criteria is a valuable in diabetes screening, as its elevated level may identify other metabolic disorders associated with diabetes, and unfavorable risk of cardiovascular complications of this disease.
