        <p>This study was conducted to compare the quantitative and qualitative aspects of serum â€Žcholesterol in chronic renal failure (CRF) patients due to diabetes with that of CRF in patients â€Ždue to other causes, and assessing the possibility for developing atherosclerotic cardiovascular â€Ždisease. The study was conducted in 80 Sudanese patients on haemodialysis and peritoneal â€Ždialysis, 40 of them had CRF due to Diabetes mellitus and others had CRF due to other â€Žcauses. Additional 40 health Sudanese served as control. Serum samples were analyzed using â€Žstandard colorimetric methods to detect concentration of the total cholesterol, triglycerides, â€Žhigh density lipoprotein. In CRF patients due to diabetes mellitus there was significant â€Žincrease in serum cholesterol level, also there was consequent decrease in high density â€Žlipoprotein. The mean of total cholesterol was 255 mg/dl in the first group and in the second â€Žwas 183 mg/dl, triacylglycerols was 177 mg/dl for the first group and for the second group â€Žwas 163 mg/dl, low density lipoproteins was 187 mg/dl for the first group and for the second â€Žgroup was 113 mg/dl, high density lipoprotein cholesterol was 27 mg/dl for the first group â€Žand 31 mg/dl for the second group. There was no effect of sex, age and the duration of renal â€Žfailure. This study demonstrated the effect of diabetes mellitus on lipoprotein level in patients â€Žwith CRF as one of the atherosclerotic risk factor.â€Ž</p>
