- Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To study the association between superior mesenteric artery hemodynamic indexes and scores of lower gastrointestinal symptoms rating scales(LGSRS) in patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus. METHODS: Totally 142 inpatients with type 2 diabetes with average age of 58.76±12.32 yrs were enrolled, who were treated from August 2016 to March 2018. The history, gender, age,course and BMI were recorded, and fasting blood glucose(FBG), glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c), 2-hour postprandial blood glucose(PBG), total cholesterol(TC), triglyceride(TG), urine ACR and LGSRS were determined. Ultrasonic scanning of mesenteric artery was performed for hemodynamic indexes, including artery inner diameter(ID), peak systolic velocity(PSV), end-diastolic velocity(EDV), and resistance index(RI)at starting part,first level branch, and second level branch from root of the superior mesenteric artery(SMA).Patients were divided into 2 groups according to their LGSRS, 74 patients with LGSRS≥6 were in positive group, and 68 patients with LGSRS<6 were in control group. RESULTS: 1. There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in gender, BMI, HbA1C, FBG, PBG,TC or TG(P>0.05), but the age and DD were significantly higher in positive group than in control group(P<0.05). 2. There were three patients(4.41%) who had atheroma or plaques in SMA in control group, while five patients in positive group(6.76%)(P>0.05). 3. There were no significant difference between positive group and control group in ID at starting part and first level branch of SMA, while ID at second level branch was significantly increased in positive group compared with control group [(3.83±0.85)mm vs.(3.53±0.90)mm, P<0.05)].4. RI at first(0.816±0.059 vs 0.842±0.063,P<0.05) and second level branch(0.813±0.076 vs 0.845±0.073, P<0.05) and PSV at first level branch[(110.89±46.89)cm/s vs(95.72±36.59)cm/s,P<0.05] were significantly high in positive group; there were no difference in other hemodynamic indexes between the groups. 5.Adjusted by age,DD,glycemic and lipidemic profile,Logistic regression showed that ID at first(RR=2.092,95%CI 1.080-4.050,P=0.029) and second level branch(RR=0.491,95%CI 0.252-0.955,P=0.36) and EDV at second level branch(RR=0.897,95%CI 0.824-0.976,P=0.012) were independent factors influencing LGSRS(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Ultrosonic hemodynamic abnormalities in the superior mesenteric artery might be important factor in development of lower gastrointestinal tract symptoms in patients with type 2 diabetes.
