Abstract EN
The study was aimed at assessing the prevalence of microvascular complications and associated risk factors in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.
A cross-sectional study was conducted in a public tertiary care hospital.
All the recruited patients underwent extensive examination for the presence of microvascular complications like neuropathy, retinopathy, and nephropathy.
Prevalence of any complication was 18.04%.
Prevalence of neuropathy, retinopathy, and nephropathy was found to be 8.2%, 9.5%, and 2.8%, respectively.
Triglycerides (OR, 1.01; P = 0.011) and old age (OR, 1.06; P ≤0.01) were significantly associated with any complication.
Triglycerides were significantly associated with neuropathy (OR, 1.01; P = 0.05) and retinopathy (OR, 1.01; P =0.02).
Being male posed high risk for nephropathy (OR, 0.06; P =0.01).
These results are suggesting need of regular screening for microvascular complications.
