All of 143 patients with gout or hyperuricemia were divided into type 2 diabetes(n=43), impaired glucose regulation(n=45),and normal glucose tolerance(n=55)groups. Moreover,a cut point of 8.6 mmol/L in one hour postload plasma glucose(1hPG)of oral glucose tolerance test was used to sub-divide the normal glucose tolerance group into 1hPG≥8.6 mmol/L(n=30)and 1hPG<8.6 mmol/L(n=25)groups. The first-and second-phase insulin secretion indexes were compared among four groups. The results showed that there was no statistical difference in the second-phase insulin secretion index among impaired glucose regulation,1hPG≥8.6 mmol/L,and 1hPG<8.6 mmol/L groups(P>0.05). The first-phase insulin secretion index revealed no significant difference between impaired glucose regulation and 1hPG≥8.6 mmol/L groups(P>0.05),but obviously decreased in these two groups compared with 1hPG<8.6 mmol/L group(P<0.05). The modified β cell function indexes were gradually decreased in 1hPG<8.6 mmol/L,1hPG≥8.6 mmol/L, and impaired glucose regulation groups(P<0.05). These results suggest that when 1hPG of the patients with gout and hyperuricemia is over 8.6 mmol/L,the first-phase insulin secretion will be impaired.
