Abstract


AIM: The Aim of the study is to determine the prevalence of Microalbuminuria in newly diagnosed
patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and to compare the effectiveness of Microalbuminuria with the
fasting Lipid prole in detecting Cardiovascular risk in these patients in terms of Atherogenic Index. Material &Methods: The
study group includes 100 patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Patients with urinary tract infection, Macro albuminuria, Renal
failure and Heart failure are excluded from the study. Fasting and post-prandial blood sugar, Fasting Lipid prole, Atherogenic
Index, Creatinine and Urine Albumin are measured in all the patients. The patients were divided in to two groups: Group A
without Microalbuminuria and Group B with Microalbuminuria.
RESULTS: BMI, FBS, PPBS, Total Cholesterol, TGL, Atherogenic Index, Creatinine and Urine Albumin are found to be higher in
Group B compared to Group A patients and Serum HDL is found to be lower in Group B compared to Group A patients. Pearson
correlation coefcient of Atherogenic Indices with Urine Albumin excretion of Group B patients shows that there is a signicant
positive correlation (r = 0.5981).
CONCLUSION: Microalbuminuria can be used as an independent marker for early prediction of Cardiovascular complications
and can be used as a screening procedure in all patients diagnosed with type 2 Diabetes mellitus.
