Glycometabolic Control and Fibrinolysis in Diabetic Patients

Abstract: We investigated 148 diabetic patients with regard to their relationship between fibrinolysis (D-dimer and plasminogen activator inhibitor; PAI) and glycometabolic control (HbA1c, HbA1 and fructosamine). The percentage of moderately controlled patients as indicated by HbA1c, HbA1 and fructosamine is relatively high (29.7, 41.7 and 30.4%, respectively). Simultaneously, the D-dimer and PAI levels turned out to be enhanced in 30.8 and 22.4% of the patients. There was a p… Show more

“…Diabetic vasculopathy has been demonstrated in type 1 and type 2 diabetes and in the latter setting might be a consequence of impaired fibrinolysis and/or of endothelial damage mediated by hyperglycemia, accelerated atherosclerosis, and vasoactive cytokines and growth factors. [10][11][12][13][14][15] A few limitations of this analysis are worthy of note. First, incomplete or inaccurate reporting on birth certificates is an inherent concern in studies using birth certificate data, such as those analyzed here.…”

“…Moreover, we could re cently demonstrate in a paper published in this journal [27] that such levels have not been seen in our diabetic patient group. If correlated to the glycometabolic control pa rameter HbAi, there could be found a signif icant elevation of the mean FM values with increasing HbAi levels.…”

“…Finally, if the present knowledge about coagulation and fi brinolysis in diabetes mellitus can be shortly summarized as stated by Ostermann and van de Loo [1] -activation of the platelets, eleva tion of factor VIII, decrease of AT-III, en hancement of fibrinolysis in good glycome tabolic control (HbAi < 10%) -and clearly stay behind fibrinolysis in poor glycometa bolic control (HbAi > 10%) [27] we have added now to this knowledge the insight of increased coagulation activation as indi cated by the FM levels in dependence of the glycometabolic control state. These results might be compatible with a more causal rela tionship between coagulation activation and poor metabolic control state in diabetics on the one hand and the secondary sequelae of the disease on the other.…”

“…There were no similar studies before. However, a study conducted by Wersh et al [23] found correlations between the PAI-1 concentration and the glycated hemoglobin levels, only in patients with T2DM.…”
