    Notes: Summary We have analysed the results of urinary albumin excretion in timed overnight urine samples once every two weeks during pregnancy and post-natally in 25 non-diabetic women and 14 women with Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes who were Albustix negative and had urinary albumin excretion 〈15 μg· min−1 at conception. Urinary albumin excretion did not vary significantly in the first two trimesters in either group and at 28 weeks was 2.73 μg·min−1 (0.32–251.68) (median and range) in the diabetic women and 2.53 μg·min−1 (0.90–13.37) in control patients (not significant). During the third trimester urinary albumin excretion increased, and levels were significantly higher in diabetic patients from 36 weeks (9.37 (0.9–31.78) vs 3.52 (0.19–33.74) μg· min−1, p〈0.01) until delivery. In both groups, urinary albumin excretion reached a peak within the week following delivery — diabetic 17.42 μg·min−1 (2.03–46.64), control subjects 16.29 μg· min−1 (1.53–35.56), but six weeks after delivery, levels were similar to those in early pregnancy. The effect of pregnancy on urinary albumin excretion in these diabetic women would appear to be an exaggeration of the normal pattern, with levels returning to normal post-delivery. It is not possible to know if this has significance for future renal function, but it would be important to investigate this phenomenon in patients who already have raised urinary albumin excretion at conception.

    Notes: Summary Metabolic abnormalities antedate the development of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) by some years. How these metabolic abnormalities relate to the genetic component of the disease and to the subsequent prediction of diabetes is unknown. The present study was designed to examine the association of parental diabetes with relative weight, fasting and 2-h plasma glucose and fasting and 2-h serum insulin in childhood, and to identify which of these variables were most predictive of subsequent NIDDM. Subjects comprised 1258 Pima Indians aged 5–19 years with normal glucose tolerance participating in a longitudinal population-based study. Age-sex-adjusted values of relative weight, fasting and 2-h glucose and fasting and 2-h insulin were positively associated with parental diabetes. Only one of 138 subjects with two non-diabetic parents developed diabetes. Among 1120 subjects with at least one diabetic parent, 101 (9.0 %) developed diabetes during a mean follow up of 8.4 years. Fasting insulin was a significant predictor of diabetes, but did not add to the predictive value of relative weight. Relative weight and 2-h and fasting plasma glucose were the variables most predictive of NIDDM in childhood and adolescence. Against a background of parental diabetes, high fasting insulin concentrations predict diabetes, compatible with the hypothesis that insulin resistance is an early metabolic abnormality leading to NIDDM. In this study, however, its predictive power did not add significantly to that of relative weight, with which it was correlated. Both relative weight and 2-h plasma glucose in youth in those with diabetic parents are highly predictive of subsequent diabetes, and these may be the best measures currently available for identifying high-risk subjects in whom preventive measures might be targeted.

    Determinants of end-stage renal disease in Pima Indians with Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus and proteinuria (1993)

    Notes: Summary To identify factors related to the development of end-stage renal disease after the onset of proteinuria, its incidence was determined in 364 Pima Indians aged 35 years or older with Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus and proteinuria (protein-to-creatinine ratio ≥0.5 g/g). Of these 364 subjects, 95 (36 men, 59 women) developed end-stage renal disease. The cumulative incidence was 40% 10 years after and 61% 15 years after the onset of proteinuria. The incidence of end-stage renal disease was significantly related to the duration of diabetes, the duration of proteinuria, higher 2-h plasma glucose concentration, type of diabetes treatment, and the presence of retinopathy at the time of recognition of the proteinuria, but not to age, sex, or blood pressure. Duration of proteinuria influenced the risk of end-stage renal disease, contingent, however, upon the duration of diabetes at the onset of proteinuria. The higher cumulative incidence of end-stage renal disease 15 years after the onset of proteinuria in Pima Indians (61 %) than in Caucasians from Rochester, Minnesota (17%) may be attributable, in part, to the younger age of onset of Type 2 diabetes in Pima Indians than in Caucasians, to ethnic differences in susceptibility to renal disease, or to lower death rates among the Pima Indians from competing causes of death, such as coronary heart disease.

    Notes: Summary Risk factors predicting deterioration to diabetes mellitus were examined in 181 subjects with impaired glucose tolerance. Fifty-seven subjects had impaired glucose tolerance on one occasion followed by normal glucose tolerance at a repeat oral glucose tolerance test, and 124 subjects had impaired glucose tolerance on two successive oral glucose tolerance tests. Subjects were followed for a median period of 5.0 years (range 1.0–17.2). The age- and sex-adjusted cumulative incidence of diabetes at 10 years of follow-up was higher in subjects who had impaired glucose tolerance on both tests (70 %) than in those whose glucose tolerance was normal at the repeat test (53 %), [rate ratio (RR) = 1.6, 95 % confidence intervals (CI) = 1.0–2.5]. Proportional hazards analyses were used to identify baseline risk factors (measured at the repeat oral glucose tolerance test) for subsequent diabetes, and incidence rate ratios were calculated for the 90th percentile compared with the 10th percentile of each continuous variable for the whole group. In all subjects, in separate models, higher body mass index [RR = 2.0, 95 % CI = 2.2–9.9], high fasting serum insulin concentrations [RR = 2.4, 95 % CI = 1.4–4.2], and low early insulin response [RR = 0.5, 95 % CI = 0.3–0.8] 30 min after a glucose load were significant predictors for deterioration to diabetes. In a multivariate analysis which controlled for age and sex, 120-min post-load glucose, fasting insulin and late insulin response predicted diabetes. In subgroup analyses the predictors of diabetes were generally similar in subjects who had impaired glucose tolerance at only one test and those who had impaired glucose tolerance on both tests. These findings suggest that in those subjects with impaired glucose tolerance whose glucose tolerance has returned to normal, the risk of subsequent diabetes is high. Insulin resistance, impaired early insulin response, or both, are predictive of subsequent development of diabetes in Pima Indians with impaired glucose tolerance. [Diabetologia (1995) 38: 187–192]

    Notes: Summary Both non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and diabetic nephropathy show familial aggregation. If diabetes and renal disease have independent determinants (genetic or otherwise), offspring of parents with diabetic renal disease should have a similar risk of diabetes to those offspring of parents with diabetes alone. To test this hypothesis, the prevalence of diabetes was examined in a population-based pedigree study in Pima Indian offspring of three mutually exclusive parental types: 1) diabetic with renal disease, 2) diabetic, but without renal disease and 3) non-diabetic. Among offspring of one diabetic parent and one non-diabetic parent (n = 320) the prevalence of diabetes at ages 15–24 years and 25–34 years was 0 % and 11 %, respectively if the diabetic parent did not have renal disease compared with 6 % and 28 % respectively if the diabetic parent did have renal disease. Corresponding rates for offspring of two diabetic parents (n = 121) were 10 % and 17 %, respectively if neither parent had renal disease compared with 30 % and 50 %, respectively if one parent did have renal disease. The presence of renal disease in a parent with diabetes relative to diabetes alone was associated with 2.5 times the odds of diabetes (95 % confidence interval 1.4–4.3) in the offspring controlled for age, age at onset of parental diabetes and diabetes in the other parent using logistic regression. These findings provide support for parental diabetic renal disease, independent of age at onset of parental diabetes, conferring an increased risk for diabetes in the offspring. The results are compatible with the hypothesis that the susceptibility to renal disease in the parents and to diabetes in the offspring are due to shared familial environmental factors or to the same gene or set of genes.

    Notes: Summary The current classification and diagnostic criteria for diabetes mellitus were introduced by the United States National Data Group in 1979 and endorsed by the World Health Organization in 1980, with modifications in 1985 and 1994. The criteria, chosen to reflect the risk of complications, were the synthesis of considerable thought and expertise and represented a consensus which, it was hoped, would prove helpful to all those involved with diabetes – practising clinician, research scientist and epidemiologist alike. The inconvenience, variability and nonphysiological nature of the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) are well-recognised. In spite of these limitations the 2-h post-load plasma glucose has remained the standard against which all other tests have been evaluated. This article reviews the original justification for the OGTT, and in the light of more recent epidemiological research seeks to place the current diagnostic criteria for diabetes into a pathophysiological, diagnostic and prognostic perspective.
