Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the associations of makers from demographic, clinical, and laboratory profiles with microvascular complications in a cohort of type II diabetic population in Bangladesh. Methods: In this cross-sectional study 103 participants [47 Men and 56 Women; Age 40~70 years] having type II diabetes for more than 10 years were randomly recruited during their routine visits to a major Diabetic Hospital in Dhaka, Bangladesh. The associations of prevalence of microvascular complications [Cardiac Autonomic Neuropathy(CAN), Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy(DPN), Diabetic Nephropathy(Nep), Diabetic Retinopathy(Ret)] with demographic, clinical, and laboratory profiles were assessed by multivariate logistic regression (p 1.0). Results: The prevalence rates of CAN, DPN, Ret and Nep were 68%, 43.69%, 6.8%, and 4.8% respectively. The overall prevalence of diabetic-associated microvascular complication is 94.36% in this cohort of diabetic patients. BMI (p=0.0330, OR=1.90) and HbA1c (p=0.0535, OR=3.08) were found to be the most significant risk factors in the development of all microvascular complications. However, HbA1c for CAN; HbA1c, Microalbuminuria and Urinary creatinine for DPN; years of Diabetes, Systolic blood pressure and albumin creatinine ratio for Nep, HbA1c and Microalbuminuria for Ret were found to be most significantly associated in this Diabetes patients’ cohort. Conclusion: The proportion of microvascular complications was found to be significantly high among patients with Type II diabetes mellitus in this cohort. Controlling HbA1c could help reduce all four types of complications. However, controlling microalbuminuria could prevent DPN and Ret. This emphasizes the need for screening and prevention program toward early, symptomless identification of type II diabetes microvascular complications. |
