Table 4.

Odds ratios for the presence of ECMDs and DM in patients with acromegaly.

Parameters NGT ECMDs DM ECMDs+DM
Age (per s.d.) 1.0 1.10 (0.43–2.82) 2.74 (1.11–6.8)* 1.98 (0.86–4.5)
BMI (per s.d.) 1.0 1.73 (0.58–5.2) 3.26 (1.14–9.3)* 2.70 (0.98–7.4)
IGF1 Z-score 1.0 1.58 (1.09–2.27)* 1.50 (1.06–2.11)* 1.48 (1.07–2.06)*

Data are given as ORs with 95% CI, adjusted for age, BMI, duration of acromegaly, fasting growth hormone levels, IGF1 Z-score and treatment with somatostatin analogues. NGT, normal glucose tolerance (reference group); ECMDs, early carbohydrate metabolism disorders; DM, diabetes mellitus. *P<0.05 vs NGT.
