FIBRINOGEN CONCETRATION IN NON INSULIN DEPENDDENT DIABETIC PATIENTS WITH MICROALBUMINURIA

Abstract

In this study, blood glucose, fibrinogen and micro albuminuria levels are measured in 30 non Insulin dependent diabetic patients (NIDDM). 17 patients were control group (with Norma micro albuminuria) and 13 were patients group (with micro albuminuria). Elevated plasma glucose levels in two groups explained the poor glycemic control. From our result we found a strong correlation between the two variables, fasting blood glucose and micro albuminuria. There were no significant differences in the duration of disease between two groups (patients and control) and also there were no significant difference in duration between males and females. Also there were elevations in the micro albuminuria concentration in females compare with males. Measurements of our study prove that, diabetic patients (type П) with micro albuminuria had significant higher concentration of fibrinogen than diabetic and patients (type П) with normo micro albuminuria. Also significant difference in the concentration of fibrinogen was observed between males and females.
