The hypothesis suggests thatthelipid particlecomposition indiabetic dyslipidemia is more likely to cause atherosclerosis compared to other forms of dyslipidemia. The objective of ourstudywastoestablishthecorrelationbetween T2DMandlipidprofileabnormalities,as well as identify the factors that contribute to an elevated risk of dyslipidemia in patients with T2DM. Methods:Weconducted anepidemiologicalcross-sectionalstudyin DMClinicin comprehensive health insurance clinic. We included patients with T2DM, patient age from 18 to 60 years old, and apparently uncomplicated. Results: We recruited a total of 47 patients diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), with an average age of 49.5 ± 9.12 years. Out of the total, 21 individuals (44.7%) were male, while 26 individuals (55.3%) were female. Approximately 55% of the patients examined exhibited dyslipidemia. Upon evaluating each component of the lipid profile, it was found that 53.2% of the patients examined had elevated triglyceride levels, 46.9% had highcholesterol,45.9%hadabnormalLDL cholesterollevels,and25.5%hadlowHDLlevels.DMpatientswith Dyslipidemiaexhibitedsignificantlyelevated levelsoffasting bloodglucoseandglycosylatedhemoglobin.
