Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2019, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Background-Dyslipidaemia and hypertension are the commonest risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD). Recent reports show that borderline hypertension (systolic BP 130-139 and/or diastolic BP 85-89 mmHg) and Stage I hypertension carry a significant cardiovascular risk and there is a need to reduce this blood pressure. Methods-The present study was carried out on a total of 100 hypertensive patients attending our Hospital and 100 age and sex matched healthy controls. Twelve hour fasting lipid analysis was done for Serum triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol(TC), High Density Lipoprotein (HDL), Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL). Results- The Mean serum total cholesterol values were highly significant in hypertensive subjects (231.2±34.5 mg/dL) as compared to the healthy control subjects (158.2±12.44 mg/dL). The mean serum TG level was 107.28±16.24 in healthy control subjects, and 214.54±38.41 in hypertensive patients. This difference was highly significant. The mean values for HDL 29.62 ±6.24 was mg/dL for hypertensive subjects whereas 43.56±4.21 mg/dl for healthy control subjects, respectively. The Mean serum LDLc values were highly significant in hypertensive subjects (158.42±32.42 mg/dL) as compared to the healthy control subjects (95.72±15.60 mg/dL). Conclusion- All the lipid profile like cholesterol, LDL, TG and HDL were derange in the hypertensive than those in the healthy controls.
