Study of Lipid Profile in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients of Non Diabetic Etiology and its Relation to Serum Calcium
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 9
Abstract
Background: Patients suffering from chronic kidney disease are prone to develop diseases related to the cardiovascular system owing to the accelerated rate of atherosclerosis due to a multitude of factors, one of them being the characteristic "atherogenic" lipid profile abnormality that they exhibit. Few studies have pointed out the role of secondary hyperparathyroidism as a contributing factor in the development of the abnormal lipid profile. Aim 1. To study the pattern of lipid profile abnormalities in chronic kidney disease patients of non-diabetic aetiology and to assess the relation between the degree of renal impairment and the extent of alteration of lipid profile. 2. To study the association between the serum calcium and phophorous levels and hypertriglyceridemia. Materials and Methods: 150 patients were carefully selected after assessing their eligibility using the inclusion and exclusion criteria. History, clinical examination and biochemical investigations were performed .Blood for the assessment of lipid profile was collected after a minimum of 9 hours fasting and a light fat free diet on the previous day. Data was analysed using SPSS software. Results: Patients with chronic kidney disease were likelier to have higher levels of triglyceride and lower HDL values and as the stage of CKD progressed, the abnormalities in TGL and HDL values increased. There is a positive correlation between the level of triglycerides and serum phosphorous in both stage 4 and 5 CKD and an inverse correlation between serum TGL and calcium in stage 4.Dialysed patients exhibit no alteration in their lipid profile as compared to non dialysed patients.
