Abstract: | Fasting samples of 914 subjects from healthy population were analyzed for total cholesterol, triglyceride and three major
fractions of lipoproteins i.e. high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low lipoprotein cholesterol and very low-density lipoprotein
cholesterol. The values obtained were (in mg/dl) 165.7±30.2,88.36±31.2, 44.86±10.68, 101.66±29.8 and 18.11±7.35 respectively.
When these subjects were grouped according to the age and sex, no appropriate differences were observed between most of the
groups. Triglycerides were found to be low and HDL cholesterol was high in female when compared with male of similar age.
Beyond age 40 years cholesterol level and low density lipoprotein cholesterol was found to be gradually increased in case
of women. Minor difference was observed with dietary pattern. Present study suggests that clinical evaluation of patient should
be made on the basis of these reference values for Western Maharashtra population. |
