Description
Background: Long duration elevation of blood sugar can lead to damage to blood vessels, kidneys, retina, nerves etc. It may damage pulmonary vasculature and via inflammatory mediators reduce the lung function. So this study tries to find out relationship between diabetes and lung function. Material and Methods: A Hospital based observational descriptive study with cross – sectional design was done among patient with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus attending OPD and being admitted in the Department of General Medicine, Mahatma Gandhi Medical College and Hospital Jaipur during the period of study . Detail history was taken, BMI was noted, diabetic parameters were investigated and spirometry was done to note the PFT values. Results: The increase in BMI lead to significant decrease in lung function (p<0.05). Poor diabetic control (increase in HbA1c ) and increase in duration of diabetes is significantly negatively correlated to FVC, FEV1 and TLC (p<0.05). Even PPBS is significantly negatively correlated to FVC and FEV1 (p<0.05) Conclusion: Increase in blood sugar level and poor control along with increase in BMI significantly reduce lung function. Hence strict control of blood sugar level is essential to halt the progress of decline in lung function in type2 diabetes patients.
