Predictive value of non-HDL cholesterol for cardiovascular disease in a population in far western Algeria with type 2 diabetes.
Diabetes & Metabolic Syndrome 2019 January
BACKGROUND: Non high density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in people with type 2 diabetes. The aim of our study is to estimate the relative multivariate risk of non-HDL-C in the occurrence of CVD in a population in the extreme western Algeria with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
METHODS: Our study was carried out in western Algeria on a population of 1111 subjects, 371 cardiopaths with T2DM and 740 controls. The biochemical balance was established using standard enzymatic procedures (SFBC or IFCC recommendations) on the Beckman CX7® PLC (Beckman-Coulter® , NY, USA). Information on the pathologies was collected by means of a questionnaire.
RESULTS: The logistic model retained the two levels of non-HDL-C: 130 mg/dl < non-HDL-C≤160 mg/dl (OR = 0.11; 95% CI = 0.03-0,47, P = 0.003) and 160 mg/dl < non-HDL-C≤190 mg/dl (OR = 5.02; 95% CI = 1.1-22.87, P = 0.037) and smoking (OR = 19.27; 95% CI = 3.39-109.63, P = 0.001), inbreeding (OR = 3.65; 95% CI = 1.12-11,85, P = 0.031) and the two age groups 60-70 years (OR = 2.36; 95% CI = 1.32-4.2, P<0.01) and 70 years and over (OR = 2.26; 95% CI = 1.19-4.29, P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: Non-HDL-C is a powerful risk factor for the occurrence of cardiovascular disease in type 2 diabetics in the extreme western Algeria.
