Diabetes mellitus is group of metabolic disorder caused by increase in blood glucose level and defects in insulin resistance, insulin action. Certain ethnic and racial group of Asia and Africa has greater risk of diabetes. Insulin deficiency causes higher metabolization of free fatty acid and can cause disorder in lipid metabolism. As compared to non diabetic control group type 2 diabetes mellitus have high triglycerides and low HDL-c levels. There was a sharp increase in the number of patients having >160 mg/dl of triglycerides after 35 years of diabetes mellitus. After the age of 30 years, there is also increase in LDL and TG in female and also in males; and there is slight change in HDL-c level in both the sexes. Diabetic males have significantly higher level of cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL and significantly lower level of HDL cholesterol as compared to that of female diabetics and also the diabetic subjects were on medications (oral hypoglycemic). No other major sex differences were noted. This research will uplift awareness for the need of lipid analysis and must be educated on the risks they face as a result of their condition and necessary steps for its management and also goal is to increase HDL to 40 or above most of our patients with triglyceride levels of <400 mg/dl had a combination of high LDL and a low HDL level, which is the most common pattern of dyslipidemia found in our study.
