Abstract

Background & Methods: The aim of the stud is to find the association of inheritance for paternal or maternal or both sides in type 2DM patients, all patients with emphasis on duration of diabetes mellitus, symptomatology of diabetes mellitus and its various microangiopathic complications, interviewed for family history and age of onset of the disease. Results: In the study population, more number of patients 28(56 %) were having diabetes equal to or less than 5 years, followed by 12 patients (24%) with the duration of 6 to 10 years, next 06 patients (12%) between 11 to 15 years and only 03 patients (6%) between 16 to 20 year, one patient were having type 2 DM from more than 20 years. 24 % Patient were alcoholic and 26%, patients were smoker and 22% were tobacco chewer. Conclusion: In our study population, 24 % Patients were alcoholic, 27% were smoker and 22% tobacco chewer. The development of early-onset type 2DM was more likely associated with a consanguineous and/or conjugal diabetic parents and probably MODY subtype among a substantial number of patients. Epidemiological and demographic factors might have been implicated, especially in those with negative parental diabetic history.
