Popis: Lipid profile of sixty survivors of myocardial infarction was studied and these results were compared with hundred age and sex matched controls. Seventy one percent had normal cholesterol (Ch). However, 80% of them had elevated serum Triglyceride (Tg) values. A decreased apolipoprotein A1 (apo A1) with an increased apolipoprotein B (apo B) values were observed in these patients. Ratio of apo A1 to apo B remained significantly low in survivors of myocardial infarction. It was seen that more abnormalities in patients were observed in apolipoprotein concentrations rather than lipoprotein or lipid concentration.
