Methods: In a cross-sectional study design included 118 patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus aged between 5-13 years. Serum glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL), and triglyceride (TG) were measured. Results: The results showed that there was a significant relationship between all lipid profiles expects HDL-C with glycosylated hemoglobin (p=0.0001).
