[Relationship between insulin resistance and coronary heart disease in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus patients].

Recent clinical studies showed that an independent association between hyper-insulinaemia and coronary heart disease (CHD) in men with normal glucose tolerance. In non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) it is less clear. Therefore, we evaluated insulin-sensitivity index, plasma glucose, insulin, lipoproteins and apolipoproteins in 40 male NIDDM patients with CHD, and compared them with 36 male NIDDM patients without CHD. The insulin-sensitivity index determined by the reverse of fasting plasma glucose and insulin product. The results showed that the subjects with CHD had significantly lower insulin-sensitivity index (P < 0.01) compared to those without CHD. Using step-wise logistic regression analgsis, we found insulin-sensitivity indexes (OR 0.237, 95%CI 0.0909-0.6167, P = 0.0032) were negatively associated with CHD, and were independent from other cardiovascular risk factors such as age, body mass index, hypertension, and hyperlipemia. We conclude that in NIDDM patients with CHD are more insulin resistant compared to those without CHD. Insulin resistance is associated with CHD, and independent from other cardiovascular risk factors.
