The lipid profile of patients with diabetes mellitus in Paionia county

Background: Dyslipidemia, a well-known major risk factor for coronary heart disease, is commonly associated with macro-vascular complications in patients with diabetes mellitus. Increased level of triglycerides and reduced levels of HDL cholesterol are common lipid abnormalities in diabetes. Objectives: The aim of the study was to study the prevalence and pattern of lipid abnormalities among diabetic patients attending general practice outpatient department in Kathmandu Medical College Teaching Hospital. Methodology: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted in the Department of General Practice and Emergency of Kathmandu Medical College Teaching Hospital, Duwakot, Bhaktapur. Convenience sampling technique was used.After obtaining informed consent, 120 diabetic patients from January 2020 to March 2020 were included. The data collected was entered in the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences software and analyzed. Ethical clearance was taken from the Institutional Review Committee of Kathmandu Medical College. Results:The average TC, HDL, TG and LDL level among the female participants were 186.18 mg/dl, 41.91 mg/dl, 194.63 mg/dl, 111.88 mg/dl respectively and 186.30 mg/dl, 38.80 mg/dl, 205.60 mg/dl, 125.80 mg/dl among the male participants respectively.Eighty-five (71%) patients had a low HDL level. Total cholesterol was found to be high in 38(32%) participants. LDL cholesterol was high in 77(64%) participants. The triglyceride level was high in 85(71%) participants. Conclusion: This study showed that some diabetic individuals have a lipid abnormality while others did not. This shines light on the importance of regular testing for lipid profile in diabetic individuals because we cannot reasonably predict when a patient will develop dyslipidemia.

Abstract Introduction our study aimed to investigate the presence of depression and anxiety symptoms in diabetic patients and their association with various components of lipid profile.Methods 428 patients with diabetes mellitus joined our study. Their de- mographic and lipid profile measurements were collected. The screening questionnaire HADS was used to evaluate level of depression and anxiety. An age matched control group consisting of 50 individuals were taken and their lipid profiles and depression and anxiety levels were determined.Results it was found that 22.4% of the sample showed marked depressive symptoms and 28.5% showed marked anxiety symptoms. We found that: depression was associated strongly but not significantly (P=0.057) with lower high density lipoproteins, and associated significantly (P=0.036) with lower total cholesterol level. In addition, anxiety was associated significantly (0.000) with lower high density lipoproteins and was associated significantly (P=0.004) with higher triglycerides level. There was insignificant association between all components of lipid profile and either depression or anxiety levels in the control group.Conclusion Depressive and anxiety symptoms were common among diabetic patients. Depression was related to lower high density lipoproteins, and to lower total cholesterol level. Anxiety was strongly related to lower high density lipoproteins and to higher triglycerides level. This relationship was specific to patients with diabetes mellitus in our study .

Diabetes mellitus and its complications are still a major health problem in the world. Diabetes mellitus is closely related to the lipid profile, especially concerning the cardiovascular disease. A method that can be used to treat diabetes mellitus is hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). This study aims to observe changes in blood glucose levels and lipid profiles in patients with diabetes mellitus with hyperbaric oxygen therapy. The determination of blood glucose levels and lipid profiles is done by photometry. A total of 30 patients with diabetes mellitus examined for their blood glucose level and lipid profile before and after hyperbaric oxygen therapy. In the Paired T-test, there were significant decrease in blood glucose levels (p= 0,000), total cholesterol (p= 0,000), and triglycerides (p= 0,000) after hyperbaric oxygen therapy. The conclusion of this study shows there is a significant decrease in blood glucose level and lipid profile (total cholesterol, and triglycerides) after hyperbaric oxygen therapy.

This study aims to establish relationships between inflammatory status, ferrokinetics and lipid metabolism in patients with diabetes mellitus. Subclinical inflammation was assessed by levels of high-sensitive C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor-α and erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Iron metabolism parameters included complete blood count, serum iron, transferrin and ferritin. Metabolic status assessment included lipid profile, glycated hemoglobin and microalbuminuria measurement. As a result of the study it was possible to establish both general (universal) and diabetes mellitus (DM) type-dependent relationships between the parameters of lipid profile and metabolic control in DM. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels negatively correlated with microalbuminuria (r = −0.293; p ˂ 0.05 for type 1 diabetes and r = −0.272; p ˂ 0.05 for type 2 diabetes). Ferritin concentration positively correlated with triglyceride level (r = 0.346; p ˂ 0.05 for type 1 diabetes and r = 0.244; p ˂ 0.05 for type 2 diabetes). In type 1 diabetes, a negative correlation was discovered between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and LDL-C (r = −0.480; p ˂ 0.05), very low-density-lipoprotein cholesterol (VLDL-C) (r = −0.490; p ˂ 0.05) and triglycerides (r = −0.553; p ˂ 0.05), and a positive one between C-reactive protein concentration and triglyceride level (r = 0.567; p ˂ 0.05). Discovered relationships between lipid profile indices, inflammatory status and microalbuminuria confirmed mutual influence of hyperlipidemia, inflammation and nephropathy in diabetes patients. Obtained results justify the strategy of early hypolipidemic therapy in patients with diabetes mellitus to prevent the development and progression of microvascular complications.
