- Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a common non-communicable disease, affecting around 9.3% of the global population, and is linked to increased erythrocyte osmotic fragility (EOF), which affects red blood cell breakdown in hyperglycemic patients.
- The study conducted at Jimma Medical Center compared EOF and hematological indices between 62 T2DM patients and 62 non-diabetic controls, indicating that T2DM patients showed significantly higher EOF and alterations in blood cell metrics.
- Findings revealed that higher fasting and postprandial blood glucose levels, along with increased red blood cell distribution width, are associated with abnormal EOF in T2DM patients, highlighting the
