Résumé

Impaired glucose tolerance, glucose fluctuations, and hypoglycemia have been observed in patients with chronic liver disease (CLD). The flash glucose monitoring (FGM) system, which recognises continuous and dynamic glucose changes in real time, is used in daily clinical practice. This study aimed to examine the association between glucose fluctuations and hypoglycemia, as measured by the FGM system, and liver-related events. Seventy-two patients with CLD and type 2 DM who had their blood glucose measured using Freestyle Libre Pro between April 2017 and July 2018 at our institution were enrolled in this retrospective study. We assessed the results of the FGM system measurements and liver-related events, as defined by gastrointestinal bleeding, infection, ascites, encephalopathy, and liver-related death. The standard deviation (SD) of mean glucose as measured by the FGM system was 41.55 mg/dl, and hypoglycemia was observed in 48.6% (35/72) of the patients. Liver-related event-free survival was not significant when stratified based on SD; however, the event-free survival was significantly lower when stratified by hypoglycemia (p = 0.007). In a multivariate analysis using the Cox proportional hazards model, Child-Pugh class B [Hazards ratio (HR) 2.347 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.042-5.283), p = 0.039] and hypoglycemia [HR 2.279 (95% CI: 1.064-4.881), p = 0.034] were identified as factors contributing to event-free survival. Hypoglycemia, as determined by the FGM system, was identified as a significant factor that was closely associated with liver-related events. In addition to measuring glucose levels, the FGM system is useful in predicting the occurrence of liver-related events.
