Abstract
Aim: 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.
