Journal Title: Journal of Advanced Medical and Dental Sciences Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
Background: Gallbladder (GB) stone disease is a common disorder of the adult population in western countries. GB stone formation is multi factorial. The present study was conducted to assess the role of fasting blood glucose in cholelithiasis. Materials & Methods: The present study was conducted on 120 patients undergoing cholecystectomy. General information such as name, age, gender was recorded. In all patients, complete blood count and fasting blood glucose (FBG) was performed. USG was done in all patients. Results: out of 120 patients, males were 50 and females were 70. The difference was significant (P- 0.1). Age group < 20 years had 2 males and 5 females, 20-30 years had 10 males and 15 females, 30-40 years had 11 males and 14 females, 40-50 years had 15 males and 20 females and >50 years had 12 males and 16 females. The difference was significant (P< 0.05). The mean FBG level preoperatively was 98.4 mg/dl and post- operative FNG was 100.1 mg/dl. The difference was non- significant (P> 0.05). Conclusion: Author found no positive correlation in occurrence of cholelithiasis with fasting blood glucose level. Gall stone formation is predominantly seen in females as compared to males. The chances of gall stones formation increases as age increases.
