A Study of Lipid Profile of 100 Patients Presented With Myocardial Infarction & Stroke, a Recent Concept
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 11
Abstract
Abstract: In the historical era, till now total cholesterol and LDL was considered to be a potential risk factor for MI and CV stroke. So we conducted a study of 100 cases of myocardial infarction and stroke at tertiary care center, surendranagar. In this case study, total cholesterol and LDL level were measured. Male (71%) had higher incidence than female (29%) in myocardial infarction and stroke. Lipid profile was altered in 37% of patients which means 63% had normal lipid profile. 100 cases of myocardial infarction and CV stroke were studied for their lipid profile to find out whether cholesterol levels are risk factor for arterial disease or not. It’s to prove that nowadays total cholesterol and LDL is no longer considered to be a risk factor for myocardial infarction and cerebrovascular accidents. In this study, Trop-T and lipid profile of patients having MI & stroke taken by fully automated machine. Study excluded the patients which were already having statins for high cholesterol levels. In this study male(71%) have higher incidence of MI than female(39%).and Age group(56-70yr)have a higher incidence of myocardial infarction and stroke. Total cholesterol was normal in 71% and abnormal in 29%, And LDL was normal in 69% and abnormal 31%.in 90% of MI cases (74%normal and 36%abnormal lipid profile) and in 10% of cases of brain stroke (6%normal and 4%abnormal lipid profile). At the end of study there is no positive correlation between lipid profile and myocardial infarction & stroke.
