Abstract

Diabetes and thyroid disorders are the most common endocrinopathies in the world, they are often associated with deranged lipid profile. The present study was cross-sectional study conducted in the tertiary care centre, Krishna Institute Of Medical Sciences, Karad. A total 400 patients of Type 2 diabetes mellitus were scanned for thyroid disorders, 97 participants had thyroid disorder. All the 97 thyroid disorder patients were further scanned for dyslipidemia. The study observed that 28.87% of the patients with thyroid disorder had dyslipedemia. The associations between type of thyroid disorder and total cholesterol levels (p=04) and level of triglycerides (p=0.0390) were found to be statistically significant. Dyslipedemia was seen majority (32.93%) in the cases of hypothyroidism compared to cases of hyperthyroidism with dyslipedemia (6.67%). Raised triglycerides were also more common in the cases of hypothyroidism (40.24%) than hyperthyroidism (13.33%). No any significant association was seen in the type of thyroid disorder and the HDL, LDL and VLDL levels of the patients (p > 0.05).
