To establish HbA1c as a marker for glycemic control and dyslipidemia in diabetics in a tertiary care hospital. Material and Method:A single centered study of eighteen-month duration conducted in the general medicine department in a tertiary care teaching hospital of north India. A systematic protocol followed for obtaining permission from IEC by submitting a detailed Performa of study which include data collection form, patient information and consent form and evaluated biomedical literature or articles. The study was approved by the research ethical committee. Result: A substantial association was also found between HbA1c and lipid profile markers. Study was conducted on 170 patient. Raised triglycerides, total cholesterol and LDL levels were seen in 69.4%, 29.4% and 19.4% cases of type 2 diabetics while low HDL was observed in 50% cases. Conclusion:A high prevalence of dyslipidemia was observed among cases of diabetes. We also observed a significant correlation between HbA1c and lipid profile parameters. Thus better glycemic control reflected by HbA1c would also reflect better lipidemic state and vice versa.
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.
