Type 1 diabetes mellitus impairs lung function, significantly reducing forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1). The duration of diabetes correlates with the severity of lung function decline.

Area of Science:

  • Pulmonary Medicine
  • Endocrinology
  • Diabetology

Background:

  • Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder.
  • Pulmonary complications are increasingly recognized in diabetic patients.
  • The impact of T1DM duration on lung function requires further elucidation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the effects of T1DM on lung function.
  • To assess the relationship between T1DM duration and the severity of lung function impairment.

Main Methods:

  • A case-control study involving 27 male T1DM patients and 27 matched healthy controls.
  • Spirometry was performed using an Electronic Spirometer (Schiller AT-2 Plus).
  • Statistical analysis included the student t-test (2-tailed).

Main Results:

  • T1DM patients exhibited significantly reduced forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) compared to controls.
  • No significant differences were observed in forced expiratory ratio, forced expiratory flow, or peak expiratory flow (PEF).

Conclusions:

  • T1DM is associated with impaired lung function, characterized by decreased FVC and FEV1.
  • A dose-response relationship exists between the duration of T1DM and the degree of lung function impairment.
