Investigation of lipid profile in type 1 diabetic children Referred to Ali Asghar Zahedan clinic in the year 1402-3

Abstract

Introduction: According to the recommendations made, it seems necessary to check serum lipids in all type 1 diabetic patients, regardless of the length of time that has passed since the disease, and it emphasizes the accurate control of blood sugar using more appropriate patterns of insulin therapy. Also, considering the few studies conducted in the adolescent age group and type 1 diabetes. It is necessary to implement a low-cost follow-up program. Therefore, considering the importance of type 1 diabetes and the impact that this disease has on the individual, family and society, and pointing out that the level of lipid profile in young people with type 1 diabetes is variable, we decided to conduct a study to investigate the level of lipid profile in Type one debate people do. Materials and methods: In this descriptive-cross-sectional study, 52 type 1 diabetes patients who visited Ali Asghar Zahedan Hospital were selected using the non-probability sampling method and were examined in terms of their lipid profile. Patients with a history of hypothyroid disease, cholestasis, familial hypercholesterolemia, nephrotic syndrome, CRF, or receiving isoniazid, BB, estrogen, and clozapine drugs were excluded from the study. Results: 52 children with type 1 diabetes in the age range of 1 to 18 years were investigated. In terms of gender distribution, 29 of the children (55.8%) were boys and 23 of them (44.2%) were girls. There was no significant difference in lipid profile between boys and girls (p>0.05). Also, the average HbA1C (P=0.069), cholesterol (P=0.07) and HDL (P=0.35) did not differ significantly according to age, but the variables of triglyceride (P=0.033) and LDL (P=0.01) in children over 10 years old. It was more than children under 10 years old. Conclusion: Finally, it can be stated that the amount of lipid profile in type 1 diabetic patients is not related to gender, but some of its factors are related to age. Lipid profile is needed in patients with type 1 diabetes.
