Treatment modality, diabetic control and blood homeostasis in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in Basra

Abstract This study is aimed at investigating the relationship between treatment modality, glycemic control and blood homeostasis as represented by prothrombin time (PT) activated thromboplastin (APTT) in T2DM patients. Sixty-four type 2 diabetic patients (40 males 24 females) on metformin or insulin both for not less than six months of ages 20 75 years were selected during their visit to Diabetes Endocrine Metabolism Centers two General Hospitals Basra. Socioeconomic characteristics plans recorded. Glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), lipid profiles hematological parameters measured samples taken. Lower mean HbA1c (p = 0.0383) was found alone, higher percentage hemoglobin treatment, levels LDL (P 0.0018) HDL 0.0241) insulin. Treatment manner had no effect PT APTT, however, there a significant inverse correlation with 0.0042), direct APTT 0.0209) an platelets count 0.0324) treatment. In addition, triglycerides (TG) 0.0069) conclusion, lower only receiving drug Hb treated least months. further studies are needed bring about understanding homeostasis.
