Abstract :

Objective: To assess different anthropometric measurement for detection of early atherosclerosis in type 1 diabetic patients. Patients and methods: The study included 135 type 1 diabetic patients and 100 healthy volunteers of the same age and sex. Blood samples were taken for assessment of OxLDL, glycosylated hemoglobin, and lipid profile. Urine samples were taken for assessment of albumin/creatinine ratio. Doppler for assessment of carotid intimal medial thickness (cIMT), aortic intimal medial thickness (aIMT) and renal Doppler (RI) were also done. Result: HbA1, albumin/ creatinine ratio, lipid profile, OxLDL, cIMT, aIMT and RI were significantly higher in diabetic patients. Body mass index had a significant positive correlation with age of patients, insulin dose, waist/ height ratio, blood pressure, LDL and cIMT. Waist / hip ratio had a significant positive correlation with duration of the disease, insulin dose, waist/height ratio and albumin creatinine ratio. Waist/ height ratio had a significant positive correlation with glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), lipid profile and cIMT. Conclusion: Waist/height ratio is the best anthropometric measurement for assessment of atherosclerosis and glycemic control in diabetic patients. Recent Publications 1.
