Abstract
Objective and Aim: Development of diabetes among vulnerable group of population can be measured by some indirect and direct bio chemical and anthropometric indicators through providing a significant clue. The main objective of the study is to evaluate correlation between different biochemical and anthropometric indicators to assess predictability of diabetes in a tertiary clinical set up in Bihar. Methods: This observational and cross sectional study was mainly conducted at medical out Patient Department (OPD) at Katihar Medical College and hospital situated at Karim Bag, Bihar. Patients were screened and divided in three groups one obese subjects but without diabetes, second was obese subjects but with diabetes and other was control arm, all subjects were clinically examined at OPD and recent biochemical test were done in concerned medical laboratory at hospital. The data was recorded in a predesigned study proforma for further analyses. Result: It has been found that there was a significant established correlation between BMI and FBS, PPBS, HbA1c, HOMA IR respectively. It had been also observed that there was also a positive significant established correlation between W/H ratio and HOMA IR. Conclusion: From this observational cross sectional study it had been concluded that as prognostic predictor of diabetes either linked to obesity or not, may be treated by biochemical and anthropometric indicators.
