| Popis: | Introduction: The increased incidence of diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) is attributed to the rising obesity rates, which is one of the major factors contributing to Insulin Resistance (IR). Although there is a close relationship between obesity and IR, not all cases of obesity lead to cardiometabolic complications. Visceral fat is considered to be the primary cause of IR. Lipid Accumulation Product (LAP) is postulated as a new continuous biomarker of visceral adiposity. Aim: To determine the association between LAP and IR in T2DM. Materials and Methods: This institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted over a period of three months at the Department of Biochemistry, Rajarajeswari Medical College and Hospital in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India. A total of 60 Type 2 diabetic patients (including newly diagnosed and known cases) were recruited as cases, along with 30 healthy controls. Height, weight, and Waist Circumference (WC) were measured. Fasting blood samples were collected for laboratory biochemical estimation of glucose, Total Cholesterol (TC), Triglycerides (TG), High Density Lipoprotein (HDL), Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL), and fasting insulin. Statistical analysis for continuous variables was performed using unpaired Student’s t-test, and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) test was used for group comparisons. Results: Fasting serum insulin (p-value=0.007), Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) (p-value=0.001), and LAP index (p-value |
