Impact of Glycated Hemoglobin on Serum Triglycerides in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
Abstract: Diabetic patients have increased risk of dyslipidemia compared to normal subjects. This increased risk is attributable to the poor glycemic control in diabetic patients. Increased levels of triglycerides are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. We conducted a study on 140 diabetic patients who attended outpatient and inpatient department of Shri B. M. Patil Medical College, Vijayapura, between January 2015 till June 2016. We found that 76 % of the patients had BMI above normal range. Glycated hemoglobin was above 7 in 78% of the patients. 60 % of the patients had serum triglycerides levels above normal range. Mean Glycated hemoglobin of diabetic patients in our study was 8.5±2.1 , mean levels of triglycerides was 171.3±77.0 (Pearson’s Coefficient Value of 0.243 with p-value of <0.001). Our study has demonstrated the positive association of serum levels of glycated hemoglobin and serum levels of triglycerides. Higher the glycated hemoglobin levels, more the levels of serum triglycerides.
