Cross-sectional study shows correlation between LDL levels and albumin creatinine ratio in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, suggesting lipid management may be important.
Key Points
A significant correlation exists between mean LDL and albumin creatinine ratio among patients with diabetic kidney disease.
LDL levels showed a statistically significant difference across different ACR groups, particularly high in group A3 (136±26 mg/dL).
The study analyzed lipid profile, HbA1C, and ACR in 100 patients, addressing how lipid levels associate with kidney disease.
Further research is needed to explore lipid management as a potential therapy to mitigate diabetic kidney disease progression.
