ABSTRACT
The present study included 50 controls (age 34-64 years) and 50 NIDDM subjects (age 32-72 years) from the diabetic clinic of Government Medical College, Nagpur. It was undertaken with the aim of investigating obesity indices (i.e. body mass index, skin fold thickness, waist hip ratio and % fat in the body); lipid profile (including serum total cholesterol, triglyceride, VLDL, LDL and HDL-cholesterol) levels and platelet adhesiveness in both the groups. On comparison, plasma glucose levels were higher in NIDDM (P > 0.05); obesity indices, cholesterol, triglyceride, VLDL, LDL and platelet adhesiveness index were higher, and HDL levels low in NIDDM group as compared to controls (P < 0.01). Obesity, dyslipidemia and increased platelet adhesiveness are interconnected and make diabetics more susceptible to arterial disease with increased risk of vascular episodes.
