Abstract
Background:-CRP is an important inflammatory marker in the pathogenesis of metabolic disorders. One of the major complications in diabetes mellitus patients is cardiovascular disease. CRP may help to predict among Pre-diabetic patients are at higher risk for Ischemic heart disease (IHD). Several cumulative studies indicate that CRP levels are altered in individuals with a family history of diabetes. The aim of this study was to explore the comparison and association of CRP levels between the first degree relatives of type-2 diabetes with IHD and without IHD patients.
Material and method: - The present study access fasting Blood glucose levels and inflammatory marker CRP in two groups. Group A comprised 50 first degree relatives of type 2 diabetes with IHD and Group B consist of 50 first degree relatives of type 2 diabetes without IHD.
Result: -The mean of CRP and Fasting Blood Sugar were significantly (p<0.05) higher in 1st degree relative to type 2 diabetic patients with IHD. It also seems to be slightly elevated levels of CRP in 1st degree relatives of type 2 diabetics without IHD.
Conculsion: - The study has shown that CRP is an independent marker in early diagnosis of IHD in 1st degree relatives of type 2 diabetics. It has also been seen that strong family history of type 2 diabetic patients who are in Pre-diabetic stage has shown slightly increased level of CRP and patients have fasting sugar level is within the normal range when we compare the two parameters FBS and CRP in pre-diabetics patients. So, we can use CRP as an important diagnostic tool for the prevention of IHD in those patients who have a family history of diabetes.
