Zusammenfassung: | Diabetes mellitus is a chronic and progressive endocrine disorder that may result in macro and microvascular complications.
This study assessed some biochemical analytes in Nigerians who were recently (≤ 6 months) diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
160 T2DM and 90 non-diabetic control participated in this study. Blood samples were collected and analyzed for Heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (HFABP), high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), electrolytes, lipid and renal profile parameters, glycated haemoglobin (HBA1C) and fasting blood glucose (FBG), using standard guidelines.
The body mass index (BMI) of the T2DM volunteers was higher than control (P |
