Asymptomatic Reactive Hypoglycemia and Inflammatory Reaction in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease

Abstract: SummaryHyperglycemia is an established risk factor of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, hyperglycemia with preserved pancreatic β cell function induces hyperinsulinemia to correct the glucose profile and may even result in reactive hypoglycemia (RH), which induces an inflammatory response. In this study, the incidence of RH and its effect on arteriosclerosis were examined in CAD patients with a lengthy oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT).We performed a prospective cross-sectional study on 116 nondiabetic … Show more

“…10 All the defense mechanisms that prevent an individual from the negative consequences of hypoglycemia appear to be crucial in establishing prognosis in diabetic patients after acute coronary syndrome. 17 However, it remains unclear whether or not these defense, counterregulatory, mechanisms alter the prognosis in otherwise healthy patients who experience reactive hypoglycemia (RH), defined as blood glucose levels lower than 70 mg/dL that occurs 2-5 hours after a meal. 18,19 The potential role of RH in atherogenesis has not been thoroughly investigated.…”
