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. The serum concentrations of all the parameters of lipid profile test in female (20-40 year age group) patients comparatively all parameters are higher than the male (20-40 year age group) except serum T.G, in female (40-60 year age group) patients comparatively all parameters are higher than the male (40-60 year age group) except serum T.G, and in female (>60 year age group) patients (Individuals) comparatively all parameters are higher than the male (>60 year age group). Therefore, from the trend of our data, we can conclude that normal range of lipid profile in female of all age groups comparatively higher than all age groups of male in the population of Chitwan. It can be suggested that lipid values obtained in this study can be used as the reference (mean) value, based on which clinical correlation can be made.
