Abstract

Background: India is known as the diabetes mellitus capital because the issue is so serious there. Industrialization and urbanization are to blame for the emergence of this lifestyle-related disease.
Aims and Objectives: to research the prevalence of anemia and glycaemic control in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Methodology: This cross-sectional research was conducted from July 2021 to June 2022 at the pathology department of a tertiary care teaching hospital. All type 2 diabetes mellitus subjects who were either admitted to IPD or present at OPD had their anemia checked. The pilot research was place prior to the start of this investigation and lasted one month. The ultimate sample size was 912, and the 912 type 2 diabetes mellitus subjects with written informed consent were enrolled in our research at random over the course of a year. During this time, the prevalence of anemia was 18%. All subjects had their age, sex, and other pertinent information recorded, and all had HbA1C and Hb% tests. The SPSS software-calculated Chi-square test was used for the statistical analysis.
Results: According to our survey, the majority of subjects were between the ages of 40 and 50 (43.42%), followed by 30 to 40 (21.49%), 50 to 60 (14.69%), >60 (12.72%), and 20 to 30 (7.58%). Subjects were mostly male (55.70%) and female (44.30%). In contrast to 56.53% of subjects who had excellent glycaemic control, 27.84% of subjects with good control, 9.09% of subjects with moderate control, and 6.53% of subjects with poor glycaemic control, 43.27% of subjects with poor glycaemic control, 37.50% of subjects with moderate control, 14.42% of subjects with good control, and only 4.81% of subjects with excellent glycaemic control were anaemic. This makes it evident that the prevalence of anemia increases along with the level of HbA1C in relation to poor glycaemic control. This distinction is statistically significant (p 0.0001; df = 3, 2 = 168.1).
Conclusion: According to the results of our research, anemia was more common in subjects who had poor glycaemic control.
Key Words: Glycaemic control (HbA1C), type 2 Diabetes mellitus, Anemia(Hb).
