Abstract: Objectives: To evaluate whether biochemical parameters are associated with a good glycemic control and to identify the occurrence of cardiometabolic risk variables. Material and methods: One hundred forty Brazilians were evaluated. The subjects were characterized with regard to glycemic control as good, fair and poor and were divided into tertiles by TG and HbA 1c . We use the ROC curve to determine which variables were predicted of poor glycemic control and the factor analyses to identify the domains that seg… Show more

“…Although we found a significant difference between the mean triglyceride levels in the optimally controlled group and the suboptimally controlled group (139.4 vs 168.8 mg/dL; P < 0.05), multivariate analysis showed an estimated OR for elevated triglyceride 1.004 (95% CI, 1.000-1.007) of having suboptimal T2DM control and a low predictive value of elevated triglyceride level for suboptimal T2DM control, as deduced by the ROC analysis. Our findings were similar to a study that showed that elevated triglyceride levels were associated with poor glycemic control,[ 36 ] and other studies that observed triglycerides as a marker of poor glycemic control. [ 16 ] Although low HDL-C has been associated with poor glycemic control[ 9 37 38 ] we did not observe such an association in our study.…”
