A Study of Fasting Lipid Profile in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients.
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2019, Vol 4, Issue 6
Abstract
Background: Chronic renal failure results in profound lipid disorders which stem largely from the deregulation of high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and triglyceride-rich lipoprotein metabolism which increases the risk of arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease which is the leading cause of mortality among chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Methods: This is a cross-sectional observational study conducted about lipid profile on CKD patients with normal healthy controls at our hospital after considering inclusion and exclusion criteria. Lipid profile was collected from eligible patients and controls. Results: There were a statistically significant decrease in HDL and increase in triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and total cholesterol levels when compared with normal healthy controls. Conclusion: Treatment of dyslipidemia helps to decrease mortality in CKD patients.
