However, the role of blood lipids in KPT2D, especially serum triglycerides (TGs), is not yet clearly understood.Patients and Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 409 young patients diagnosed with KPT2D or classical type 2 diabetes (T2D) attending an academic tertiary hospital. Clinical characteristics and laboratory findings were compared between KPT2D and T2D patients. ANOVA or a non-parametric test analyses were used to evaluate differences in clinical characteristics and laboratory findings. Multivariate regression analyses and stratified analyses were used to further investigate differences in serum TGs levels between KPT2D and T2D individuals.Results: KPT2D is a subtype of T2D with traits of overweight or obesity. However, hyperglycemia and impaired β-cell functions were more severe in KPT2D patients. Serum TGs levels were significantly higher (P = 0.0003) in KPT2D individuals. Furthermore, the proportion of very high serum TGs levels was 6-fold higher (P < 0.0001) in KPT2D than in T2D patients. Elevated serum TGs were associated with young KPT2D patients.Conclusion: Lifestyle changes as well as lipid-lowering treatments might be effective in lowering the incidence of ketosis as well as stabilizing disease progression.Keywords: ketosis, triglycerides, hypertriglyceridemia |
