<正>Objective:To study the correlation of lipid ratios and individual lipid indexes of patients with type 2 diabetes with glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c).Methods:Samples were collected from 128 type 2 diabetic patients（aged 19-90 years;male 72,female 56）.The sera were analyzed for HbA1c,total cholesterol（TC）,triglycerides（TG）,high-density lipoprotein cholesterol（HDL-C） and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol（LDL-C）.According to the HbA1e level,the patients were divided into three groups,group A(HbA?<7%,n=31),group B(7%<HbA1c<10%,n=48),and group C(HbA1c>10%,n=49).The correlation of HbA1cwith lipid ratios & individual lipid indexes were analyzed.Results:With the increased level of HbA（1c）,LDL-C had a significantly increasing trend（P<0.05）;whereas TC went up with the increased HbA（1c）,without any significant differences between three groups.There was no significant correlation between HbA1c and TG or HDL-C. With the increased level of HbA1c,TC/HDL-C,LDL-C/HDL-C ratios were gradually increased, with significant differences among groups（P<0.05）.The lipid ratios,especially LDL-C/HDL-C ratio was more susceptible to impaired lipid metabolism in T2DM patients than individual lipid. Conclusions:LDL-C/HDL-C ratio is helpful in assessing and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease caused by impaired lipid metabolism in type 2 diabetic patients.
