Abstract

IntroductionDiabetes mellitus is an established cardiovascular risk factor. Diabetes mellitus impairs lipid metabolism and enhances atherosclerosis development. Absolute lipid parameter are inadequate in predicting cardiovascular risk and some lipid indices have been reported to circumvent this deficiency. The objective of the study was to determine the association between these lipid indices and 10-year cardiovascular risk among black Africans with diabetes. correlation. ResultsThe mean age of the participants was 53.34 ± 9.57 years. The mean duration of diabetes mellitus among the participants was 6.29 ± 2.78 years. The mean HbA1c and FPG were 6.98±0.72% and 6.32±0.87 mmol/L respectively. The mean QRISK 3 score was 7.58±4.80. There was a statistically significant and positive correlation between QRISK 3 score and AIP, AC, CR I and CR II. CHOLindex did not significantly correlate with QRISK 3 score. Among black Africans with diabetes, lipid indices (AIP, AC, CR I and CR II) significantly correlated with QRISK 3 score and therefore may be used as cheap markers of 10-year cardiovascular risk in these individuals.

血脂指数与非洲黑人2型糖尿病患者10年心血管风险之间的关系

引言糖尿病是一个公认的心血管危险因素。糖尿病损害脂质代谢并促进动脉粥样硬化的发展。绝对脂质参数不足以预测心血管风险，据报道，一些脂质指数可以避免这种不足。该研究的目的是确定这些脂质指数与非洲黑人糖尿病患者10年心血管风险之间的关系。相关性结果参与者的平均年龄为53.34±9.57岁。参与者糖尿病的平均持续时间为6.29±2.78年。平均HbA1c和FPG分别为6.98±0.72%和6.32±0.87mmol/L。QRISK3平均分为7.58±4.80。QRISK 3评分与AIP、AC、CR I和CR II呈正相关，具有统计学意义。CHOLindex与QRISK 3评分无显著相关性。在患有糖尿病的非洲黑人中，脂质指数（AIP、AC、CR I和CR II）与QRISK 3评分显著相关，因此可作为这些人10年心血管风险的廉价标志物。
