description | <p><strong>Background:</strong> In type 2 diabetes mellitus lipid abnormalities are very common and is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. This study was conducted to find association of type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemia.</p><p><strong>Materials and Methods:</strong> This cross-sectional study was conducted at KISTMCTH. All the necessary data of patient with type 2 diabetes in the period between December 2016 and May 2017 were studied.</p><p><strong>Results:</strong> Out of 199 patients with diabetes mellitus 30.7% had total cholesterol >200 mg/dl, 64.4% had elevated low density lipoprotein, 53.77% patient had elevated triglyceride and 64% patients had low high density lipoprotein level. Cholesterol showed significant correlation with triglyceride (P < 0.001), low density lipoprotein (P < 0.001). Triglyceride showed a significant negative correlation with high density lipoprotein (P < 0.01), while a highly significant positive correlation was observed with cholesterol and high density lipoprotein (P < 0.001).</p><p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Diabetes is associated with high incidence of dyslipidemia with elevated level of low density lipoprotein, cholesterol and triglyceride.</p> |
