To determine the biochemical and hematological differences between diabetic patients and non-diabetic controls of asymptomatic bacteriuria in and around Indore region
M. Deepthi, Rohit Gupta Kailash Jatav
Abstract
Background: A clear knowledge of the causative agents of UTIs and antibiotic susceptibility pattern of
the isolates would be helpful in the treatment of UTIs. Data generated from this study could provide useful
information for the effective management of diabetes mellitus and the prevention chronic complications.
Hence, the aim of the present study is to establish biochemical and hematological differences between
diabetic patients and non-diabetic controls of asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB). Materials & Methods:
This research was conducted at the Index Medical College and Hospital after receiving approval from the
Institutional Ethics Committee. The majority of patients with diabetes are seen at the hospital's diabetic
clinics, which are extremely well-established and run very smoothly. Patients come here for routine
checks and treatment. Informed consent or assent, in addition to completion of a questionnaire, and
ethical approval are all necessities. Results: Patients with diabetes had significantly higher levels of
serum creatinine, C-reactive protein (CRP), and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) compared to non-diabetic
controls (P < 0.05). Conclusion: There was no discernible difference between the patterns of resistance
of isolates taken from diabetic patients and those obtained from controls who did not have diabetes in
terms of the resistance patterns. This suggests that the rates of exposure to antimicrobial compounds
experienced by bacteria from these two habitats are comparable to one another.
