TI  - Prevalence of Dyslipidaemia among Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients in the 
      Western Cape, South Africa.

AB  - Dyslipidaemia, an irregular aggregate of lipids in the blood is common in 
      diabetes and cardiovascular disease sufferers. A cross-sectional study on the 
      prevalence of dyslipidaemia was performed among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) 
      patients in the Western Cape, South Africa. Patients (n = 100) that participated 
      in the study were within the age range of 19-68 years, of whom 89% were observed 
      to have serum lipid abnormalities. Out of the 100 patients, 56%, 64%, 61%, and 
      65% were recorded to have high total cholesterol (TC), hypertriglycemia, 
      increased low-density lipoproteins cholesterol (LDL-C), and reduced high-density 
      lipoproteins cholesterol (HDL-C), respectively. In male diabetic patients, a 
      marked prevalence of (94%) dyslipidemia was noted, of which 52% were affected by 
      high TC (5.3-7.9 mmol/L), with 70% having a high level of triglyceride (TG) 
      [1.72-7.34 mmol/L], while 60% had a high LDL-C (3.1-5.5 mmol/L), including 78% 
      with low HDL-C (0.7-1.1 mmol/L). In comparison, 84% of diabetic females had 
      dyslipidemia, with high TC (5.1-8.1 mmol/L), hypertriglycemia (1.73-8.63 mmol/L), 
      high LDL-C (3.1-5.6 mmol/L), and low levels of HDL-C (0.8-1.1 mmol/L) affecting 
      60%, 58%, 62%, and 52% of the patients, respectively. This study showed the 
      importance of screening and the regular surveillance of dyslipidaemia in T2DM 
      patients as there is a paucity of data on it in Africa.
