Objectives: We compared pancreatogenic (DM3c) and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Methods: We compared age-, sex-, and diabetes mellitus duration-matched DM3c cases (n = 142) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (n = 142). Pancreatogenic diabetes was considered when it appeared after the diagnosis of pancreatitis or after pancreatic surgery.

Results: Pancreatogenic diabetes presented lower body mass index (BMI) [odds ratio (OR), 1.2; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.13-1.28; P < 0.001], worse glycemic control (OR, 1.196; 95% CI, 1.058-1.35; P = 0.004), required insulin more frequently (OR, 4.21; 95% CI, 2.57-6.93; P = 0.0001), had more hypoglycemic episodes (OR, 3.65; 95% CI, 1.64-8.16; P = 0.001) but lower frequency of dyslipidemia (OR, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.26-0.68; P = 0.001) and arterial hypertension (OR, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.32-0.86; P = 0.01). Pancreatogenic diabetes cases on pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy had lower glycosylated hemoglobin (8.52% vs 9.44%; P = 0.026), serum carotenes (79.1 vs 116.1; P = 0.03), and BMI (23.4 vs 26.1; P = 0.0005) than those not on pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy. Pancreatogenic diabetes onset occurred earlier in necrotizing pancreatitis and after pancreatic surgery.

Conclusions: Pancreatogenic diabetes presents with low BMI and lacks metabolic syndrome components. The type of pancreatic disease or surgery defines its onset time.

Accuracy and feasibility of continuous glucose monitoring system in pancreatectomy patients.

Langenbecks Arch Surg

January 2025

Department of Surgery, Division of HBP Surgery & Liver Transplantation, Korea University College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea.

Purpose: Pancreatectomy patients often experience challenging fluctuations in blood glucose levels; therefore, they require a reliable monitoring system. This study aimed to determine the accuracy and acceptability of a continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system compared with the intermittent capillary glucose test in patients who have undergone pancreatectomy.

Methods: Thirty non-diabetic pancreatectomy patients participated.

Pancreatogenic diabetes also known as type 3c diabetes mellitus (DM) is a distinct entity often overlooked and misdiagnosed as type 2 diabetes. It results from exocrine pancreatic dysfunction involving both insulin and glucagon deficiencies due to damage to pancreatic beta and alpha cells. This case highlights a 46-year-old male presenting with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a rare but severe complication of type 3c DM.

Central pancreatectomy: An uncommon but potentially optimal choice of pancreatic resection.

Hepatobiliary Pancreat Dis Int

November 2024

Department of Academic Surgery, The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust, Fulham Road, Chelsea, London SW3 6JJ, UK; Department of HPB Surgery, University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust, Bristol Royal Infirmary, Upper Maudlin St, Bristol BS2 8HW, UK. Electronic address:

Benign, premalignant or low-grade malignant pancreatic tumors are increasingly diagnosed owing to the widespread uptake of cross-sectional imaging. Surgical excision is a potential treatment option for these tumors. Pancreatoduodenectomy and distal pancreatectomy are the standard resections for tumors located in the pancreatic head-neck or body-tail, respectively, and not uncommonly sacrifice a significant amount of healthy pancreatic parenchyma.

Glycemic Variability in Pancreatogenic Diabetes Mellitus: characteristics, Risks, Potential Mechanisms, and Treatment Possibilities.

Int J Gen Med

September 2024

Department of Endocrinology, Gusu School, Nanjing Medical University, The First People's Hospital of Kunshan, Kunshan, 215300, People's Republic of China.

Article Synopsis
  • Pancreatogenic diabetes mellitus is becoming more prominent due to its high rates of occurrence, complications, and mortality, with glycemic variability (GV) being a key risk factor.
  • Effective management of GV is essential for preventing this type of diabetes and improving patient outcomes, yet many patients receive inadequate or potentially harmful medications.
  • This study aims to explore the connection between GV and pancreatogenic diabetes, investigate underlying mechanisms, and offer lifestyle tips and better medication choices for managing GV in affected patients.

Article Synopsis
  • * After ruling out common causes like insulin use and sepsis, other potential causes, such as nesidioblastosis (a rare form of hypoglycemia), should be investigated.
  • * A case study of a non-diabetic male with symptoms like dizziness and palpitations revealed that he had nesidioblastosis instead of insulinoma, demonstrating the importance of thorough evaluation.
