ABSTRACT
Objective: To determine the frequency of abnormal lipid profile in patients presented with coronary artery disease.
Study Design: Cross-sectional/observational
Place and Duration: Conducted at Wazirabad Institute of Cardiology, Wazirabad for duration of one year, November 2019 to Oct 2020.
Methodology: Total two hundred and twenty patients of both genders ages between 30 to 75 years were presented in this study. Patients detailed demographics age, sex and body mass index were recorded after taking written consent. Blood sample of all the patients were taken for laboratory test. Frequency of lipid profile (Cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL-C, LDL-C and VLDL) were measured. Complete data was analyzed by SPSS 24.0 version.
Results: Total 133 (60.45%) were males and 87 (39.55%) were females. Mean age of the patients were 54.74±4.39 years and mean BMI was 26.78± 5.14 kg/m2. Out of 220 patients frequency of abnormallipid profile was found among99 (45%) patients. Mean total Cholesterol was201.42±8.65and Low Density Lipoprotein was 109.18±24.16 in the cases, whereas the High Density Lipoprotein-Cholesterol was 50.90±9.36. Serum Triglycerides was214.84±65.23 increased among cases
Conclusion: We found in this study that frequency of lipid profile in patients presented with coronary artery disease was very high and total cholesterol and LDL were significantly high as compared to HDL c.
