Co-Relation Of Serum Lipids And Glycosylated Haemoglobin With Changes In Retina In Type -2 Diabetes
Journal Title: International Journal of Basic and Applied Physiology - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Background:This study was done to study the correlation between serum lipids and glycosylated haemoglobin with changes in retina in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Method: 80 subjects were taken for this study from diabetic clinic of civil hospital Ahmedabad and 40 controls were taken from community. They were divided into 3 groups. A detailed history was taken and clinical examination was done and specific investigations were done to estimate HbA1c, blood glucose levels (fasting and post prandial), S.triglyceride, S.HDL, S. cholesterol, S.LDL. Fundus examination was carried out in all of them. Result: The incidence of diabetic retinopathy was high with increase in age & duration of diabetes. Mean glycosylated haemoglobin levels in diabetic subjects were more as compared to mean HbA1c levels in healthy non-diabetic control subjects. Diabetic patients with retinopathy had a higher mean HbA1c levels as compared to diabetic patients without retinopathy. Conclusion: High HbA1c and dyslipidaemia indicate chronicity of type-2 D.M. with poor glycaemic control these patients are more prone for diabetic retinopathy. With age and duration of typr-2 D.M. risk increases for retinopathy.
