<p>Comparison of Lipid Profile, Liver Enzymes, Creatine Kinase and Lactate Dehydrogenase Among Type II Diabetes Mellitus Patients on Statin Therapy</p>

Abstract: Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an epidemic disease affecting millions worldwide; the majority being type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Diabetes mellitus has been shown to be an important risk factor for the development of a variety of cardiovascular diseases, which are becoming common in Ethiopia. Consequently, risk-reducing statin therapy is recommended for nearly all patients with T2DM at 40 years of age or older regardless of cholesterol level. However, some controversies exist regarding its safety. Ob… Show more

“…Diabetes is a chronic disease which is characterized by hyperglycemia with serious disturbances in the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids and proteins [28,29]. Significant increase of the fasting blood glucose (FBG) in diabetic-induced rats group compared with the normal control group suggest there is a disruption in the carbohydrate metabolism and streptozotocin is a common agent used to induce diabetes in rats which may explain the reason for the hyperglycemia noticed in the diabetes rats.…”

“…The reference ranges of CK-MB for children of different ages in Hunan, China, and Washington, USA, were established respectively. At present, Habte ML proposed that the change of CK-MB reference value is related to the influence of non-environmental factors, such as gender, age, living habits, human obesity degree, and blood lipid concentration (Habte et al 2020 ). Domestic and foreign studies on CK-MB reference value and regional environment are still in a blank state.…”
