The triglyceride levels in serum generally remain elevated for about 3 to 6 hours after a meal. This postprandial hypertriglyceridemia (more than 2.72 mmol/l or 201 mg/dl) is exacerbated by the next routine meal and thus the lipemic milieu persists throughout the day. Therefore, measuring and documenting postprandial dyslipidemia in diabetic patients is vital in addition to measuring the fasting lipid levels. Blood samples were drawn before and 4 hours after the standardized test meal. The HbA1c, fasting and postprandial lipid profile levels and glucose levels were estimated. Fasting and postprandial triglycerides, total Cholesterol, HDL, VLDL were measured by standard laboratory technique. The mean serum HDL cholesterol in the NN group was 40.57 ± 5.23.The mean serum HDL cholesterol in the NH group was 35.43 ± 6.33.The mean serum HDL cholesterol in the HH group was 32.87 ± 6.30. The mean serum fasting triglyceride in the NN group was 107.29 ± 20.69.The mean serum fasting triglyceride in the NH group was 132.57 ± 7.52.The mean serum fasting triglyceride in the HH group was 230.13 ± 48.96.
