BACKGROUND: To determine the prevalence of modifiable cardiovascular risk factors among adults with diabetes in the remote Himalayan areas, at elevation range from 350 meters (1,148ft) to 6900 meters (22,966ft) above sea level, in the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: Study was conducted in 21 rural areas of Himachal Pradesh situated at 2200 to 10,000 feet altitude. Non-pregnant diabetic adults (>18years) were surveyed, through 32 diabetic camps. The date and place of the camp was decided one month in advance and advertised. Detailed history including smoking status, weight, height, waist circumference, body mass index recorded. Fasting or random blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin, lipid profile measured and blood pressure recorded.
RESULTS: Total 909 eligible adult diabetics were surveyed (59.73% male) with a mean duration of disease 38.14±4.56 months.35.54% adults were smoker and 67.55% were either overweight or obese 54.04% males and 77.53% females had waist circumference above Indian standards. 78.35% had A1C >7% and 61.50% had blood pressure measurements above target (>140/80mmhg). 56.74% had elevated LDL and only 6.32% had all blood glucose, blood pressure and cholesterol at recommended levels.
CONCLUSIONS: High prevalence of modifiable cardiovascular risk factors in addition to uncontrolled blood glucose is widespread, placing diabetics at higher risk for cardiovascular disease. Improved disease management system in addition to public awareness campaign is needed for people with diabetes in this region of the country.
