Abstract:
Background: Diabetes mellitus type II is a metabolic disorder that is characterized by hyperglycemia in the context of insulin resistance and relative lack of insulin. Obesity is thought to be the primary cause of type 2diabetes in people who are genetically predisposed to the disease Objective: To determine the correlation between body mass index (BMI) and lipid profile in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) .Methodology: study population: seventy patients with T2DM . Study area and duration: visiting aboagalla Center and difference follow up diabetic center between 2016 to 2021 were included in this study. Sample collection and preparation: Three ml of blood were collected from each participant into anticoagulant tube to obtain plasma and lipid profile were measured by automated chemical analyzer (Cobse C311 Roche).Body weight , body height , and from Roche instrument also anthropometric (body weight, body height, and waist circumference were measured by using the scale. Results: The means of FBG, TRI and HDL levels (168.1 ± 67.4,131.6 ± 63.1and 40.7 ± 24.5 were increased among obese group when compared with normal and overweight groups, without significant differences, Moreover the mean value of CHOL and LDL (176.2 ± 33.0 and 118.1 ± 30.7 respectively) were higher in overweight group when compared with the normal weight and obese groups with insignificant difference .Conclusion: The results suggest a high total cholesterol in obese group while high level of triglyceride in over weight group and increase level of LDL in normal weight, which might be playing a major role in the development of cardiovascular diseases among diabetic patients.. These results are important to indicate that there is modest impact of BMI on lipid profile.
