Objective: To determine frequency of microalbuminuria and relative determination of glycated hemoglobin (HBA1C) in Type II diabetes mellitus patients. Study Design: Descriptive Cross Sectional. Study Setting: Three Different Hospitals Based in Sindh Pakistan. Study Period: March-August 2021. Material & Methods: After selection through non-probability purposive sample technique, demographic details of all patients were noted in a written questionnaire. All the confirmed patients of type-II diabetes mellitus were then tested for microalbuminuria and glycated hemoglobin in parallel with the disease progression. All the collected information was analyzed in SPSS ver. 22. Results: Among 165 enrolled cases, 89 (54%) type II diabetic patients were normoalbuminuric, 53 (32 %) Microalbuminuria and 14 % macroalbuminuria. Males were at greater risk (65%) of developing type II diabetes mellitus in comparison to females (35%). In total 46 type II diabetes mellitus cases with microalbuminuria represent raised HBA1C levels AT95% CI. Conclusion: Prevalence of microalbuminuria among type II diabetic patients visiting the tertiary care hospital is 32.1%. Patients with higher HbA1c or poor glycemic control are present with microalbuminuria.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
