Aim To evaluate blood pressure, blood glucose and serum lipid level in obese and nonobese type 2 diabetic patients.
Methods 206 obese(76 male, 130 female) and 442 nonobese(208 male, 234 female) type 2 diabetic patients underwent fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, HbA1c total cholesterol, triglyceride, high density lipoprotein,
microalbuminuria, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine and C-peptide were measured. Diabetes was diagnosed according to the American Diabetes Association(ADA)criteria. Obesity was defined as body mass index(BMI, kilograms per meters squared)≥25.
Results In male, systolic blood pressure, triglycerides, microalbuminuria and C-peptide were significant higher in obese than nonobese patients. Fasting blood glucose were significantly lower in obese than nonobese patients. Diastolic blood
pressure, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, HbA1c, total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein, blood urea nitrogen, and creatinine were no difference between 2 groups.
In female, triglycerides and C-peptide were significant higher in obese than nonobese patients, Blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, HbA1c, total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein, microalbuminuria,
blood urea nitrogen, and creatinine were no difference between 2 groups.
Conclusion Our present study supports that increased triglycerides play a major role in increasing the risk of coronary heart disease(CHD) in obese women type 2 diabetic patients.
