Correlation between diabetes mellitus and hyperlipidemia in patients with ischemic heart disease

الملخص

Diabetic is commonly associated with abnormalities in plasma lipids and lipoproteins levels .In particulars, diabetes mellitus, usually presents with concomitant elevations in the plasma triglycerides levels and reductions in plasma HDL-cholesterol concentration. These abnormalities certainly play a role in the increased risk for cardiovascular disease, particularly ischemic heart disease (IHD). Blood samples were taken from (150) healthy control subjects (86 male and 64 females), (150) patients suffer from previous signs of IHD (84 males and 66 females) were involved in this study. The blood samples from these groups were analyzed for measuring serum total cholesterol, triglycerides, phospholipids, low-density lipoprotein, very low density lipoprotein, high- density lipoprotein and fasting blood glucose .All control subjects have a normal fasting blood glucose, normal resting electrocardiograph, blood pressure and serum lipids. Diabetics have been shown to have high levels of serum lipids than non diabetics and it also important role in the occurrence ofIHD particularly in hyperlipidemic patients.
