Abstract
Background Diabetes mellitus, being the most common non communicable disease in the world, is Usually associated with dyslipidemia, as hyperglycemia can derange the lipid metabolism. Previous studies shown that good control of lipid profile and glycemic levels can effectively Prevent complications such as cardiovascular disease, diabetic nephropathy, and diabetic Retinopathy. This study intends to know that, HbA1c levels can be used to monitor the lipid levels in the blood. To determine the correlation between HbA1c and Lipid profile in Diabetes Mellitus patients. Objective Methodology Cross sectional study was done at Department of Biochemistry, Osmania General Hospital For a period of 2 months. HbA1c and Lipid profile were done in 30 Diabetic patients. Data was analyzed using GraphPad prism v-9 statistical software. Pearson's correlation coefficient was used to calculate the correlation betwee Results n HbA1c and Lipid profile parameters. significant positive correlation was observed between Triglycerides, LDL, TC, VLDL with HbA1c and significant negative correlation was observed between HbA1c and HDL. Hba1c can predict Conclusion: dyslipidemia in Diabetes Mellitus patients. Early diagnosis of dyslipidemias can prevent the risk of Atherosclerosis and thereby reduces the risk of CVD.
