Abstract

Type-II Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic endocrine disease linked to elevated blood sugar levels and dyslipidemia. Its prevalence is continuously increasing in India. This study focused on the prevalence of T2DM and dyslipidemia in the urban-rural location of Faridabad. A retrospective cross-sectional study was carried out at Metro Heart Institute, Faridabad, Haryana, India. Participant data included their demography (urban-rural), gender, blood analysis (fasting glucose level, HBA1c) lipid profile-triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein (HDL-c), low-density lipoprotein (LDL-c) cholesterol and total cholesterol (TC). This study included 590 urban and 357 rural individuals having >60% males. Prevalence of T2DM (urban: 36.3%; rural: 6.2%) and dyslipidemia (urban: 90.8%; rural: 80.96%) was more in urban than rural participants. Prevalence of HBA1c (urban: 19.4%; rural: 50.1%), TC (urban: 9.8%; rural: 6.2%), and TG (urban: 27.1%; rural: 14.6%) was also high in urban participants. Gender differences were not observed in HBA1c, TC, and fasting blood sugar levels. In urban (34.1%) mixed dyslipidemia was more widespread than rural (23.3%).
