Popis: ObjectiveTo determine levels of cholesterol lipoproteins and prevalence of dyslipidemias in urban Asian Indians.MethodsPopulation based 6123 subjects (men 3388) were evaluated. Mean±1SD of various cholesterol lipoproteins (total, HDL, LDL and non-HDL cholesterol) and triglycerides were reported. Subjects were classified according to US National Cholesterol Education Program.ResultsAge-adjusted levels in men and women were cholesterol total 178.4±39 and 184.6±39, HDL 44.9±11 and 51.1±11, LDL 102.5±33 and 106.2±33, total:HDL 4.15±1.2 and 3.79±1.0 and triglycerides 162.5±83 and 143.7±83mg/dl. Age-adjusted prevalence (%) in men and women, respectively were, total cholesterol ≥200mg/dl 25.1 and 24.9, LDL cholesterol ≥130mg/dl 16.3 and 15.1 and ≥100mg/dl 49.5 and 49.7, HDL cholesterol
