Obese Subjects

Objective: frequency of dyslipidemia in obese subjects Methodology: In this was a cross sectional study, we included a total of 100 cases, between 30 and 70 years of age of either gender having body mass index >30 whereas we excluded all those cases who were already taking treatment of dyslipidemia. A fasting blood sample was followed for lipid profile from the hospital lab and results were followed for presence/absence of dyslipidemia. Results: In this trial, mean age was 44.57+8.52 years. Mean lipid profile was recorded as 210.17+36.73 total cholesterol, 178.83+12.10 triglycerides, 133.55+9.74 LDL and 34.42+6.58 HDL. Mean Body mass index was calculated as 34.11+7.25. Frequency of dyslipidemia in obese subjects was recorded as 51%(n=51) Conclusion: We concluded that frequency of dyslipidemia is higher in obese subjects coming to a tertiary care hospital Lahore. So, it is recommended that every patient who present with obesity, should be sort out for dyslipidemia. However, it is also required that every setup should have their surveillance in order to know the frequency of the problem Keywords: Obese, dyslipidemia, frequency

Dengue Disease

Background: Dengue is a serious mosquito-borne viral disease which in recent years has become a major international public health concern. Early detection of individuals at risk of developing severe forms of dengue could be possible with the identification of an ideal biomarker, which has been the focus of several research studies. Changes in lipoprotein profile during infection probably are primarily cytokine induced Interactions between microorganisms and lipoproteins occur in viral infections. There have been very few studies that address and elucidate a correlation between dengue fever severity and changes in the lipid profile.Methods: This study was conducted in paediatric patients with dengue infection of age group between 1 to 18 years MGM Medical College and Tertiary Care Hospital of Aurangabad City.Results: There was statistically significant association between TG (mg/dl) level and dengue disease category (DF vs DHS+DSS) among the patients. Overall the combine lipids were significantly predicting dengue disease category (DF, DHS and DSS). Serum lipids (triglycerides, LDL and cholesterol) among the patients significantly predict dengue disease category (DF, DHS and DSS). There was negative correlation between triglycerides level and HDL and hospital Stay which was found to be statistically significant.Conclusions: Reduced serum lipid profile can be used as a cost-effective laboratory investigation prompting a high suspicion of severe dengue infection especially in resource poor setting where serological tests may not be available.

Objective: To determine the correlation between body mass index (BMI) and lipid profile in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) attending a tertiary care hospital in Peshawar. Methods: A total of 305 patients (men, 132; women, 173) with T2DM visiting an Outpatient department in Northwest General Hospital and Research Centre, Peshawar from January 2016 to July 2016 were included in this study. The whole blood and sera were analyzed for Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TGs), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).The correlation of BMI with lipid ratios and individual lipid indices were analysed. Results: Mean of BMI was 29.29±5.23. Dyslipidemia; increased TC, increased LDL-C, increased triglyceride and decreased HDL-C were noted in 40.7%, 54.1%, 69.5% and 41% respectively. The mean difference of LDL-C (p=0.006) was significant between male and female. BMI, TC, TGs, and LDL-C showed no significant correlation where as a significant negative correlation between BMI and HDL-C was observed(r=-0.125, p=0.029, R2=0.016). The mean values of TC, TG, LDL-C, TC/ HDL-C and LDL-C/HDL-C ratios were greater in patients with normal BMI compared to overweight and obese; however, the differences were not significant. HDL-C differed significantly in BMI groups (p=0.040). Conclusion: A significant negative correlation between BMI and HDL-C was observed, while the correlation between BMI and LDL-C was observed to be insignificant. HDL-C was found significantly higher in patients with normal BMI. These results are important to indicate that there is modest impact of BMI on lipid profile. Therefore, assessment and management for altered blood lipids should not be based on a patient’s body weight or BMI. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.35.3.7 How to cite this:Hussain A, Ali I, Kaleem WA, Yasmeen F.
