CONTEXT: Sleep disturbance and proinflammatory markers were reported to link to the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus and glucose homeostasis. METHODS: A clinical laboratory–based analysis was performed on 14 normal volunteers, 11 diabetic patients and 16 non-diabetic patients form department of vascular surgery conducted between January 2013 and March 2013. Continuous polysomnographic monitoring was performed on 2 nights in the intensive care unit (IUC). Blood glucose level was controlled by insulin infusion. Concentrations of IL-6 and CRP levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunoassays. OBJECTIVE: To raise awareness of risk factors among postsurgery type 2 diabetes with foot ulcers. DESIGN: A clinical laboratory-based analysis was performed on 14 normal volunteers, 11 diabetic patients, and 16 nondiabetic patients from Department of Vascular Surgery conducted between January 2013 and March 2013. SETTING: This trial was admitted to Siping hospital affiliated to China Medical University, China. PATIENTS: Twenty-seven patients were postthrombolytic therapy and 14 healthy controls. INTERVENTIONS: Continuous polysomnographic monitoring was performed on 2 nights in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Blood glucose level was controlled by insulin infusion. Concentrations of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunoassays. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Changes in exogenous insulin requirements, while IL-6 and CRP levels. RESULTS: Insulin requirements on admission in ICU 48-h treatment increased 21.2% in diabetic patients compared to 24-h postsurgery. All postsurgical patients elevated IL-6 and CRP levels compared to normal individuals in the morning after 24 h and 48 h of sleep restriction. Fasting concentrations of IL-6 were distinctly increased 23.6% and 42.9%, respectively, after 24 h and 48 h of sleep restriction in diabetic patients compared to normal individuals and 18.5% and 21.8%, respectively, compared to nondiabetic patients. CRP levels are similar to IL-6 levels among these partners. CONCLUSIONS: Our study elucidated that sleep disruption aggravates disturbed glucoregulatory and systemic inflammation among postsurgical diabetic patients, which might contribute to understand these disorders for diabetic patients in immunological pathways.
