Journal Title: Journal of Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Information regarding lipid profile of different age group in the inhabitants of Chitwan is still very scanty. Lipid Profile tests were used to assess risk of heart disease in all age group populations. Lipid Profile were assessed in 3500 patients attending OPD of Chitwan Medical College Teaching Hospital, a tertiary care teaching hospital in the eastern region of Nepal. Lipid Profile tests were performed using serum levels of total Cholesterol, Serum T.G, serum low density lipoprotein cholesterol, and serum high density lipoprotein cholesterol as indicators of risk of heart disease. Out of 3500 subjects, 90 Male patients (20-40 year age group), 90 Female patients (20-40 year age group), 90 Male patients (40-60 year age group), 90 Female patients (40-60 year age group), 90 Male patients (>60 year age group), and 90 Female patients (>60 year age group), in the study normal individuals were selectively included for lipid profile tests.
