Abstract

Background: Dyslipidemia has already been confirmed as a modifiable risk factor of cardiovascular diseases and it is a significant factor leading to cardiac complications development. The researchers tried to define the correlation that prevailed existing between the un-reverent lipid profiles and heart troubles in the grown-ups.

Methods: A cross-sectional clinical trial was done on 100 participants between 25 and 70 years old. A clinical examination that included the examination of the cardiac complications- ischemic heart disease, arrhythmia, dysfunction of left ventricles and heart failure- were conducted. Rapid lipid profiling had also been conducted and cardiac lab test also conducted. The abnormal lipids were also recognized based on the NCEP-ATP III. The analysis of the data was performed by the use of the required statistical tests with the value of p = 0.05 as notable.

Results:  sixty-three per cent of the participants had heart related problems. The mean total cholesterol (218.6 + 34.5mg/dl), LDL-C (142.7 + 28.4mg/dl), triglycerides (186.4 + 42.7mg/dl) were significantly elevated and the HDL-C (38.9 -6.8mg/dl) were lower among patients with cardiac complications compared with none. The patients who had cardiac complications had higher density of dyslipidemia (85.7) than the patients who did not (48.6) (p = 0.001).

Conclusion: The cardiac problems and dyslipidemia have close dependence, according to the research. There is a high cardiac morbidity associated with the rise in LDL-C, total cholesterol, and triglycerides and the fall in HDL-C. It is essential to screen and initially treat dyslipidemia to reduce the risks of the cardiovascular system.
