Abstract:
Objective To study the characteristic and management method of steroidogenic diabetes in patients with rheumatic disease. Methods The follow-up data of steroidogenic diabetes in 38 patients with rheumatic disease were analyzed retrospectively. Results The nosogenesis of steroidogenic diabetes and fast blood sugar level was related with steroid dosage, using time, age, obesity and hypertipoidemia. The blood-fasting sugar level was not so obviously increased. Blood sugar at bedtime was (24.40±5.92)mmol/L,before breakfast was (9.52±3.64)mmol/L, after breakfast was (20.38±7.19)mmol/L, before lunch was(10.69±3.23)mmol/L, after lunch was (21.81±6.92) mmol/L, before dinner was (12.17±3.63)mmol/L. There was significant difference between blood sugar at bedtime and that in others (P<0.01 or<0.05). Most patients needed insulin to control blood sugar. Decreasing the daily dosage of steroid might be beneficial to the reduction of corticosteroid induced diabetes. Most patients could stop insulin injection when the daily dosage of steroid decreased to a certain level. Conclusions The prescription of corticesteroid in rheumatic diseases can cause temporal increase of blood sugar. Intensive follow-up aad blood sugar monitor is important for the diagnosis of steroidogenic diabetes. Promptly administration of insulin is required for blood sugar control.
