Abstract:
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide.. There is an evidence to support a connection between COPD and diabetes mellitus Type 2 (T2DM). T2DM affects 2 - 37% of COPD patients, with results being highly variable between studies.Objective : To determine the prevalence of T2DM among COPD patients in severe and very severe stages of COPD patients. To assess the risk factors affecting the prevalence of T2DM among COPD patients. Subjects and methods A cross sectional study was conducted on 140 patients with COPD attending Out - patient and Inpatient of Respiratory Unit at Baghdad Teaching Hospital. The data were collected between the10th of October 2016 to the 10th of August 2017. These data included demographic parameters such as : age, sex, educational status, body mass index (BMI), smoking habit, and respiratory parameters from history& clinical examination. Spirometry was used to assess the severity of COPD patients. Random blood sugar testing was used for identification of COPD patients having T2DM when they are not clear or not known as a case of T2DM previously.Results : The prevalence of T2DM among COPD patients was 19.38%. (The prevalence of DM in those with severe stage was 10.9%, while in very severe stage was 35.4%).The prevalence of T2DM was higher in males than in females. The prevalence of T2DM was increased in the elderly COPD patients (>61 years). Increasing with increased BMI, and also VIP a g eincreased more among current smokers followed in order by former smokers and never smokers. Lung function tests decline more in COPD patients with presence of T2DM.Conclusions : Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 is more prevalent among COPD patients; it increased with increased severity of the COPD patients and subjects with DM are at increased risk of declining pulmonary function among COPD patients.
