Microvascular diabetic complications are the most common causes of morbidity and mortality of patients with type 1 disease. Diabetic nephropathy is becoming the single most common cause of end stage renal failure, while diabetic retinopathy is the most common cause of blindness in working-age population. The main aim of the study was to evaluate the progression of late microvascular complications in type 1 diabetic patients treated by conventional or intensified insulin regimen over the period of 10 years. We selected a random sample of 32 patients, including 14 males and 18 females, aged 30,6 +/- 11,8 years, with average duration of the disease of 4,8 +/- 3,2 years. They did not show signs of overt diabetic nephropathy, while 5 patients had background retinopathy. All the patients had their fasting and postprandial glycaemia, HbAlc, 24/hour proteinuria, blood pressure, height and weight measured and body mass index calculated (BMI). There was a trend towards increasing values of HbAlc (6.9 +/- 0.8 vs. 7.4 +/- 1.0 %, p < 0.05), fasting glycaemia (6.8 +/- 08 vs. 7.8 +/- 1.2 mmol/l, p < 0.05), postprandial glycaemia (9.2 +/- 1.5 vs. 11.3 +/- 1.9 mmol/l, p <0.01), systolic and diastolic blood pressure values (120.0 +/- 10.8 vs. 128.5 +/- 16.8 mmHg, p<0.05; and 73.4 +/- 8.1 vs. 79.8 +/- 9.8 mmHg, p< 0.05) although no hypertensive patient was diagnosed. There were 11 persons (34.4%) with persistent proteinuria of 200 mg/24 hour or more and significant difference in overall proteinuria in 10 yrs period (121.3 +/- 37.3 vs. 312.8 +/- 109.9 mg/24 h, p< 0.001). Overall, 9 persons (28.1%) were diagnosed with simple, background retinopathy, but 6 of them (18.8%) had signs of proliferative form of the disease. The results indicate significant changes in progression of proteinuria in both groups although retinopathic progression was observed but was not significant in the intensively treated group.

Insulin-induced hypoglycemia occurs commonly in intensively treated patients with type 1 diabetes, but the cardiovascular consequences of hypoglycemia in these patients are not known. We studied left ventricular systolic [left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)] and diastolic [peak filling rate (PFR)] function by equilibrium radionuclide angiography during insulin infusion (12 pmol · kg−1 · min−1) under either hypoglycemic (∼2.8 mmol/l) or euglycemic (∼5 mmol/l) conditions in intensively treated patients with type 1 diabetes and healthy nondiabetic subjects ( n = 9 for each). During hypoglycemic hyperinsulinemia, there were significant increases in LVEF (ΔLVEF = 11 ± 2%) and PFR [ΔPFR = 0.88 ± 0.18 end diastolic volume (EDV)/s] in diabetic subjects as well as in the nondiabetic group (ΔLVEF = 13 ± 2%; ΔPFR = 0.79 ± 0.17 EDV/s). The increases in LVEF and PFR were comparable overall but occurred earlier in the nondiabetic group. A blunted increase in plasma catecholamine, cortisol, and glucagon concentrations occurred in response to hypoglycemia in the diabetic subjects. During euglycemic hyperinsulinemia, LVEF also increased in both the diabetic (ΔLVEF = 7 ± 1%) and nondiabetic (ΔLVEF = 4 ± 2%) groups, but PFR increased only in the diabetic group. In the comparison of the responses to hypoglycemic and euglycemic hyperinsulinemia, only the nondiabetic group had greater augmentation of LVEF, PFR, and cardiac output in the hypoglycemic study ( P < 0.05 for each). Thus intensively treated type 1 diabetic patients demonstrate delayed augmentation of ventricular function during moderate insulin-induced hypoglycemia. Although diabetic subjects have a more pronounced cardiac response to hyperinsulinemia per se than nondiabetic subjects, their response to hypoglycemia is blunted.
