TI  - Prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic liver disease: a retrospective 
      study of the association of two increasingly common diseases in Mexico.
PG  - 282-8
AB  - BACKGROUND: Recent studies have demonstrated a relationship between insulin 
      resistance (IR) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The aim of this study was to 
      determine the prevalence of T2DM among patients with liver disease. METHODS: A 
      retrospective study was performed by examining the charts of patients who 
      presented with a diagnosis of liver disease at a university hospital between 
      January 2006 and April 2010. RESULTS: Liver disease was found in 129 patients. 
      The most prevalent liver disease was cirrhosis, with 61 patients (47.2%), 44 
      patients had hepatitis C virus (34.1%) and 28 patients had hepatocellular 
      carcinoma (21.7%). T2DM was diagnosed in 30 patients, 18 of whom were male 
      (18/60; 30%) and 12 of whom were female (12/69; 17.4%). Only liver cirrhosis was 
      significantly related to T2DM (21 of 61 patients; 34.4%, p < 0.004). CONCLUSIONS: 
      The prevalence of T2DM among patients with liver disease (23.2%) is well 
      established and similar to that reported in Western and some Eastern countries.
