Abstract

Objective To investgate the relationship between insulin resistance(IR) and dyslipidemia in aged patients with diabetes(DM).Methods 118 aged patients with DM and 90 nondiabetic patients were studied and their fasting levels of blood lipid,apolipoprotein(apo),serum insulin(Ins),plasma glucose(PG) were measured,at the same time,patients with DM were divided into IR group and Non-IR group.Results ①The levels of triglycerin(TG),cholesterol(CH),low-density lipoprotein(LDL),very low-density lipoprotein(VLDL) were increased singnificantly in IR group compared with Non-IR group and non-DM group(P0.01);②The level of CH in Non-IR was higher than that in non-DM group(P0.05),but the others had no singnificant change in Non-IR group compared with non-DM group.Conclusion Insulin resistance is remarkably correlated with dyslipidemia in aged patients with DM.
