目的:关于乳酸负荷试验(LST)在一大群糖尿病(MCP)患者中的诊断率,目前几乎没有数据。研究方法:对62名年龄在17岁至84岁之间的对照组、155名年龄在17岁至87岁之间的MCP患者和31名患有神经系统疾病的患者在骑自行车15分钟、恒定30 W工作负荷之前、期间和之后分别测定了一次血清乳酸盐。除了MCP之外。结果如下:静息时、运动开始后5分钟、10分钟、15分钟和运动结束后15分钟的乳酸参考上限分别为2.0、2.1、2.1和1.8 mmol/l。如果5个乳酸值中有2个以上超过临界值,则认为该试验异常。在103例LST异常的患者中,64例(62%)静息乳酸正常。该试验的敏感性为67%,特异性为94%。结论:LST被证明在检测MCP患者中具有高灵敏度和特异性,因此是评估MCP患者中受损的氧化代谢的简单但有力的工具。
Objective: Few data are available about the diagnostic yield of the lactate stress test (LST) in a large group of patients with mitochondriopathy (MCP). Methods: Serum lactate was determined once before, three times during, and once after a 15-minute, constant 30W workload on a bicycle in 62 controls, aged 17 to 84 years, 155 patients With MCP, aged 17 to 87 years, and 31 patients with neurological disorders other than MCP. Results: Lactate's upper reference limits at rest, 5, 10, 15 minutes after starting, and 15 minutes after finishing the exercise were 2.0, 2.1, 2.1, 2.1 and 1.8 mmol/l respectively. The test was regarded abnormal if more than two of the five lactate values exceeded the cut-off levels. Among the 103 patients with abnormal LST, 64 (62%) had normal resting lactate. The sensitivity of the test was 67% and the specificity 94%. Conclusion: The LST proved to have a high sensitivity and specificity in the detection of patients with MCP being thus a simple but powerful tool to assess the impaired oxidative metabolism in MCP patients.
