Popis: | Objective: To evaluate the frequency of hyperlipidemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients with microalbuminuria attending a tertiary care hospital. Study Design: Cross-sectional study Place and Duration of Study: Combined Military Hospital, Jhelum Pakistan, from Jan 2020 to Feb 2021. Methodology: All patients aged 30 years or above with type 2 DM mellitus presented with or without microalbuminuria were consecutively enrolled. Hyperlipidemia was defined based on the presence of an elevated lipid profile. This information, along with baseline and other predicting factors, was noted. Results: Of 236 patients, hyperlipidemia was observed in 107(45.3%) patients with type 2 DM having microalbuminuria. The odds of hyperlipidemia were 53% less likely among patients aged ≤59 years than that of patients aged>59 years [aOR: 0.47, 95% CI: 0.27-0.85], 47% less likely among patients with ≤7 years of diabetes duration as compared to >7 years of duration of diabetes [aOR: 0.53, 95% CI: 0.29-0.96], and 75% less likely among patients with ≤140 mm Hg SBP as compared to the patients with >140 mm Hg SBP [aOR: 0.25, 95% CI: 0.14-0.46]. Conclusion: In the current study, hyperlipidemia was observed to be considerably higher in patients with type 2 DM having microalbuminuria. Moreover, elderly patients, longer diabetes duration, and elevated blood pressure are some of the risk factors reported in our patients. |
