Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Without Vascular Complications and Ischemia Modified Albumin |
|
Ischemia modified albumin (IMA) is a proven cardiac marker but its role in type 2 diabetes mellitus without vascular complications has not been reported yet. Therefore, IMA was estimated in 60 newly diagnosed patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus and 30 healthy controls along with HbA1C and other investigations (to rule out vascular complications). There was no significant change in IMA levels in type 2 diabetic patients as compared to controls. No correlation could be found between IMA levels and HbA1C. We conclude that IMA levels are not affected in type 2 diabetes mellitus before the onset of vascular complications. |
