| Popis: | Background: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. Ferritin is a ubiquitous intracellular protein complex that reflectes the iron stores of the body. Many cross-sectional studies indicate that increased body iron stores have been associated with the development of glucose intolerance, type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome. This study was carried out to find out the relationship between serum ferritin and type 2 diabetes and to see the influence of body iron stores on HbA1c and blood glucose. Methods: This study includes 50 patients suffering from type 2 diabetes and compared with controls at Sir T hospital, Bhavnagar. S. ferritin, Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS), Post Prandial Blood Sugar (PPBS) and HbA1c were measured. Results: Serum ferritin was significantly higher (p |
