Assessment of the state of intestinal microbiocenosis based on bacterial endotoxin and plasmalogen in elderly persons with type 2 diabetes mellitus pathology

Klin Lab Diagn. 2021 Sep 10;66(9):565-570. doi: 10.51620/0869-2084-2021-66-9-565-570.

Abstract

The concentration of bacterial plasmalogen 18a and endotoxin in the blood of elderly people 45-90 years old with the pathology of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM 2) - the main group and without diabetes mellitus - the comparison group was investigated. The concentration of both plasmalogen 18a and endotoxin in the blood of individuals with DM 2 pathology is statistically significantly higher than in the blood of individuals without DM 2 pathology. To assess the state of microbiocenosis and predict type 2 diabetes mellitus, decisive rules have been determined in the form of threshold values of plasma concentrations 18a and endotoxin in the blood of elderly people with a suspected or established diagnosis of type 2 diabetes. Using ROC analysis, it was found that values above 20.66 μg / ml for plasmalogen 18a, and 0.48 nmol / ml for endotoxin, determine the presence of type 2 diabetes mellitus pathology in the 45-90 age group.

Keywords: bacterial endotoxin and plasmalogen; gas chromatography mass spectrometry of microbial components; intestinal microbiocenosis; older age; pathology of type 2 diabetes.
