Type one diabetes mellitus impacts lung function, with reduced ventilatory pulmonary function tests (VPFTs) linked to disease duration, poor metabolic control (HbA1c > 10%), and complications like neuropathy and nephropathy.

Area of Science:

  • Pulmonary Medicine
  • Endocrinology
  • Diabetology

Background:

  • Type one diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder.
  • Pulmonary function can be affected by diabetes and its complications.
  • Understanding these effects is crucial for comprehensive patient management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate ventilatory pulmonary function tests (VPFTs) in T1DM patients.
  • To correlate VPFTs with diabetes duration, metabolic control, and complications.
  • To identify patterns of pulmonary dysfunction in T1DM.

Main Methods:

  • A case-control longitudinal study involving 50 T1DM patients (age 15-30).
  • Spirometric evaluation (PFTs) including FVC, FEV1, PEFR, MEF 75%, and MEF 25% was performed.

  • Data analyzed for correlations with diabetes duration, HbA1c, and presence of complications.

    • Main Results:

    • Significant reductions in FVC, FEV1, PEFR, MEF 75%, and MEF 25% were observed (p < 0.05).
    • Higher HbA1c levels (>10%) correlated with significant declines in FVC, FEV1, PEFR, and MEF 75% (p=0.001).
    • Diabetic patients with neuropathy and nephropathy showed significant reductions in FVC, FEV1, and PEFR (p=0.001).

    Conclusions:

    • VPFTs in T1DM exhibit varied derangements, indicating a predominantly restrictive pattern with some obstructive features.
    • Significant declines in FVC, PEFR, and MEF 75% suggest impaired lung function in T1DM.
    • Pulmonary function monitoring is recommended for T1DM patients, especially those with longer duration, poor control, or complications.
