Targeting One-Hour Postmeal Glucose: Is It Time for a Paradigm Switch in Diabetes Management?
Diabetes Technology & Therapeutics 2017 September
In the management of diabetes, postprandial glycemia (PPG) is usually targeted 2 h after the start of meal. Recent evidences, however, suggest that the value of glycemia at 1 h during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is a stronger predictor for developing diabetes than the value at 2 h and that it is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Studies in cells, animals, and humans suggest that 1-h high glucose is a sufficient stimulus for increasing several cardiovascular risk factors, such as inflammation, thrombosis, and endothelial dysfunction, with oxidative stress generation as the possible pathogenetic factor. One-hour glucose might be more dangerous than that at 2 h simply because glycemia is higher at 1 h, during an OGTT and postmeal. The new drugs, able to target better 1 h glycemia and the new noninvasive technologies for glucose monitoring, nowadays may help to change the therapeutic paradigm of targeting PPG at 2 h.
