Abstract
The serum lipid profile of diabetic patients should be measured periodically to take suitable action based on age and type of disease. There exists a positive relationship between the HbA1c level and cardiovascular disease in non-diabetic cases even within the standard range of HbA1c. This study aims to estimate the serum lipid profile in diabetes and non diabetes individual and correlation of HbA1c levels with lipid profile. The cross-sectional study was done on 124 inpatients and outpatients in a tertiary care hospital, Tamil Nadu, India. Data were collected from the eligible patients on basic clinical details and blood investigations in the fasting state were assessed for FLP-total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, VLDL, TGL, HbA1c, CBC, urine routine, renal function test and thyroid function test. A total of 412 diagnosed cases of type 2 diabetes mellitus and same number of non diabetic control were analyesed in our study. Increasing age and obesity significantly associated with the diabetes mellitus. Correlation of the lipid profile with duration of diabetes and HbA1c levels showed a positive correlation with total cholesterol, LDL, VLDL and triglycerides. The glycemic control of the patient has got a strong impact on the serum lipid profile levels. Patients should be educated about regular monitoring of lipid profiles and should control blood glucose and cholesterol very effectively.
