Résumé:
The purpose of this study is to analyses the development of some anthropometric parameters as well as biochemical measurements in the blood, of patients suffering from diabetes of the second type. The evolution of these parameters was followed during two periods: the 5th week before Ramadan and the 3rd week of fasting. The sample included 54 patients in the age bracket between 45 to 55, and undergoing hypoglycaemic medication with two Sulphamides treatments: Amarel and Diamicron.
Body mass index (BMI) remained stable (p>0.05) in most cases within both periods. However patients taking Amarel have experienced a reduction in the Body Mass Index (BMI) and hence of corporal mass compared to patients on Diamicron (p<0.0.5). Patients on Diamicron revealed a significant (p<0.05) increase in blood glucose in the to be revised in the table fasting period. The rates of cholesterol, triglyceride and LDL-C in the plasma decreased significantly (p<0.05) compared to before Ramadan. As for proteinous compounds (protein, crestinin and urea), their plasma rates all increased substantially (p<0.05) in patients on both drugs during fasting period of the month of Ramadan.
