Abstract :

Introduction: The study was conducted to determine some of the haematological and biochemical parameters among patients suffering from type-2 diabetes mellitus by measuring haemoglobin (Hb) concentration, packed cell volume (PCV), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscle haemoglobin concentration (MCHC), Platelet count (PLT), white blood cell count (WBC), Neutrophil (NEUT), Lymphocyte (LYMPH), Monocyte (MONO), Eosinophil (EOSINO), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), serum Fasting Blood sugar (FBS), Urea, Creatinine and Cholesterol. Materials and Methods: This study was carried out in HNB Base hospital under VCSG Government Medical College and some private clinical centres at Srinagar (Garhwal region) of Uttarakhand. A total 107 type-2 diabetic patients, out of which 62 (58%) were males and 45 (42%) were females having age group 30-80 years and equal numbers of healthy volunteers. Results: MCH and WBC counts were found statistically insignificant in both groups while PLT, LYMPH and MONO were found statistically significant, while other parameters were highly significant. Activity of AST and ALT among type-2 diabetic revealed a statistically highly significant increase. FBS, Urea and Cholesterol were found highly significant in both whereas Creatinine was having a significant value in the present study. Conclusion: The study showed statistically significant difference in some haematological and biochemical parameters among type-2 diabetes mellitus as compared to normal subjects. Screening of primary biochemical and haematological parameters are of high importance in respect to diabetic patients.
