- Abstract
Objective: to evaluate the frequency and factors associated with dyslipidemia in people with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Method: cross-sectional study, carried out with 45 people diagnosed with diabetes and followed up at a Basic Health Unit. Sociodemographic variables related to lifestyle and related to lipid profile analysis were investigated. Results: the prevalence of dyslipidemia was 82.2%, significantly associated with female gender (p = 0.005), smoking (p = 0.002) and sedentary lifestyle (p = 0.050). The components of dyslipidemia, total cholesterol, triglycerides and low-density lipoproteins were elevated in 68.9%, 57.8% and 11.1%, respectively. Conclusion: the prevalence of dyslipidemia was high in the patients analyzed. The existence of a significant association between the occurrence of dyslipidemia and different types of females, smoking habits and sedentary lifestyle calls attention to the need for better conduct for this population.
