Background: Lipid disorder is one of the common disorders which is seen in most of the diabetes patients that causes cardio vascular disorders. The incidence of coronary artery diseases is 3 to 5 times higher in diabetic patients compared to general population. Although this has been demonstrated for the Caucasian population few data are available for Asian Indians. Individuals with diabetes may have several forms of dyslipidemia leading to additive cardiovascular risk of hyperglycemia. Aim of the study: The aim of this study was to evaluate the levels of lipid disorder among diabetic patients in Bangladesh. Methods: This was a prospective cross-sectional study conducted in the Department of Medicine, Mainamoti Medical College &Hospital, Cumilla, Bangladesh during the period from January 2020 to July 2020. Eighty eight (88) diabetic patients were enrolled as case group participants whereas 16 healthy people of similar ages were included in control group. This study was approved by the ethical committee of the mentioned hospital. Proper written consents were taken from all the participants before starting data collection. A pre-designed questionnaire was used in patent data collection. The serum total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol and triglycerides were assayed in patients and controls, using standardized assay methods. All data were processed, analyzed and disseminated by MS Office and SPSS version as per need. Result: In this current study, in analyzing the comparative statuses of lipid profile we observed, the mean (±SD) TC (mg/dl) of case and control group participants were 208.9±54.6 and 257.4±103.4 respectively where we found significant correlation between the groups (P=0.006). We did not find any correlation between the groups in analyzing TG (mg/dl), HDL (mg/dl) and LDL (mg/dl) analyzing. In case group the mean (±SD) TG (mg/dl), HDL (mg/dl) and LDL (mg/dl) level were found 216.4±306.0, 39.2±11.0 and 114.8±47.4 respectively. On the other hand, in the control
