AbstractPresent study was aimed to assess lipid profile in diabetic and non-diabetic patients with history of myocardial infarction.
Methods: Study conducted in the Department of Biochemistry, Indian Institute of Medical Science and Research, Warudi, Tq. Badnapur, District Jalna (M.S.)in collaboration with Hedgewar hospital during period of 2015-17. Biochemical investigations include fasting blood sugar, postprandial blood sugar and lipid profile (total cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol and VLDL).
Results: Present study shows significant increase in the levels of triglyceride, LDL-cholesterol, while cholesterol level increases non-significantly. HDL-cholesterol levels decreased significantly in patients of myocardial infarction (MI) with diabetes mellitus compared to non-diabetic patients with history of myocardial infarction.
Conclusion: Diabetic patients with history of myocardial infarctionwere having significantly deranged lipid parameters and higher risk of dyslipidemic complications as compared to nondiabetic patients with history of myocardial infarction.
Keywords: AMI (Acute Mycocardial Infarction); HDL (High Density Lipoprotein; LDL (Low Density Lipoprotein); Diabetic & Non-Diabetic.
