INTRODUCTION: the prevalence of CKD and diabetic dyslipidemia in Cameroon, Africa or in other parts of the world among diabetics is not clearly estimated but, some studies tried to estimate prevalences in local areas or isolated zones. In addition, assessment of both prevelances of CKD and diabetic dyslipidaemia are not well documented. The present study aimed to estimate the prevalence of CKD and diabetic dyslipidaemia among diabetics. METHODS: this was a cross-section study conducted during 5 months in Buea, Cameroon. Independent t-test and Chi-square test were used to compare means and variance between groups and P < 0.05was considered significant. RESULTS: one hundred and twenty (120) diabetics enrolled. Sixty three point thirty three percent (63.33%) were females, 53.33% hypertensive, 74.16% overweight and obese and 32.50% presented real obesity. The mean of eGFR was 92.76 ml/min/1.73m2 and, woman presented the lower value (89.55±43.49ml/min/1.73m2) compared to men (98.37±87.43 ml/min/1.73m2) (X2 = 0.107; P = 0.466). The prevalence of CKD was 70.83% and the stage 2 was the high prevalent (36.60%). 20.83% presented CKD from stage 3 to 5. The prevalence of micro-albuminuria was 30% and macro-albuminuria was prevalent at 3.33%. Diabetic dyslipidaemia affected about half of the study population with a prevalence of 48.9%. The co-affection micro-albuminuria and diabetic dyslipidaemia was prevalent at 16.66%, against 2.50% for the co-affection macro-albuminuria and diabetic dyslipidaemia. The prevalence of diabetic dyslipidaemia among diabetic with CKD was 39.16% (X2 = 0.118). CONCLUSION: this study shown the high prevalence of CKD in diabetics and, was the first to assess the prevalence of both CKD and diabetic dyslipidaemia in diabetic Cameroonians.
