Abstract

The pulmonary function tests FVC, FEVl, FEVl/FVC, PEF, FEF25-75, and MVV were performed in 45 non-insulin dependent diabetics and 47 controls with RMS HELIOS 401 computerised spirometer. The FBS, PPBS, and HbAlC were estimated. The effect of levels of FBS,PPBS and HbAlC on the pulmonary function variables were analysed. The Spirometric variables values were all decreasing with increasing FBS, PPBS and HbA1c levels. This result underlines that respiratory system including the respiratory muscles are also one of the target organs of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus. This study supports and adds on to the literatures suggesting respiratory myopathy in non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus.
