Diabetes mellitus and cystic fibrosis: Comparison of clinical parameters in patients treated with insulin versus oral glucose‐lowering agents

Abstract: The prevalence of cystic fibrosis-related diabetes melltitus (CFRD) is increasing as patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) live longer. Because patients with CFRD are insulin-deficient, the standard medical treatment is exogenous insulin. Sulfonylureas enhance insulin secretion by acting on a specific islet beta cell receptor. No data are available about the outcome of sulfonylurea treatment vs. insulin treatment. In this retrospective study, data from 45 patients with CFRD were analyzed regarding their clinical … Show more

“…These alterations can be observed 2-4 years before CFRD diagnosis (14). When overt diabetes is present, both insulin replacement and oral glucoselowering agents have proven to reverse negative changes in weight, nutritional status and pulmonary function (20,21). However, during pre-diabetic phases of this CF-related alteration of glucose metabolism, possible benefits of therapeutic interventions are not well established.…”

“…15,119,120 Adler et al 121 noted reductions in FEV 1 and FVC in both CFRD and CFIGT. It is concerning that this decline is seen from at least 2-4 years before diabetes is diagnosed using the standard OGTT.…”
