  • OBJECTIVE: To determine the frequency of dyslipidemia in diabetic and non diabetic population PATIENTS AND METHODS: This comparative cross sectional study of six months was conducted at tertiary care teaching hospital Hyderabad. The inclusion criteria of the study were diagnosed type-2 diabetic population, of ≥35 years of age, either gender and non diabetic healthy individual, of ≥35 years of age, either gender, not taking any lipid lowering therapy. The clinical history was taken and relevant investigations were performed by advising 12 hours over night fasting and the blood sample was taken on the next morning for the lipid profile. The data was collected on pre-designed proforma and analyzed in SPSS 16 RESULTS: During six months study period, total fifty diabetic and fifty non diabetic individuals were evaluated for dyslipidemia. Out of 50 diabetic patients 35 males and 15 females and of 50 non diabetic individuals 30 males and 20 females respectively. The dyslipidemia was observed in 43 type 2 diabetic patients, of which 27 were males and 16 were females. The dyslipidemia was observed in 21 healthy individuals of which 13 were males and 08 were females. The mean age ±SD for whole diabetic and non diabetic population was 52.97±8.95 and 49.97±7.53 while the mean ±SD for serum cholesterol, LDL, triglycerides and HDL in diabetic and non diabetic population was 230.76±5.83, 150.83±5.53, 320.82±7.95, 28.82±4.52 and 160.98±8.54, 98.99±7.43, 189.75±8.82 and 37.86±5.96. The dyslipidemia was observed in 43 (86%) diabetic patients and 22(44%) non diabetic individuals. CONCLUSION: Diabetic population is prone to be dyslipidemic as compared to non diabetics and predisposes them to premature ahterosclerosis and macrovascular complications KEYWORDS: Type 2 diabetes mellitus, Dyslipidemia, Lipid profile.
