Description
Summary:ABSTRACT Introduction: Chronic Kidney disease(CKD) is a public health problem with an increasing incidence and prevalence, poor outcome and high cost.Renal disease, in early as well as advanced stages, is associated with abnormalities in lipoprotein metabolism. Dyslipidemia appears to be independently associated with increased progression rate of CKD in patients with kidney disease and with increased risk of graft loss after renaltransplantation. This study was conducted to study the lipid abnormalities in CKD patients. Methodology: Ahospital-based, observational, cross-sectional study was conducted among 89 patients attending Outpatient Department (OPD) and admitted in the ward ofBir Hospital with the diagnosis of CKD. Data was collected using the structured performa. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 16. Descriptive statistics (Frequency, men and percentage) and inferential statistics (Chi-square test) was used. Results:Out of 89 patients, 63 had low and 26 had normal High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) which was statically significant with p value of 0.067. Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) level of 30 patients out of 89 had optimal LDL, 12 out of 89 had near optimal LDL, 12had borderline high level of LDL, 26 out of 89 had high LDL level and 9 out of 89 had very high LDL.This elevation was statistically significant.Out of 89 patients 21 had normal, 19 had borderline high and 49 had high TG which was statically significant.Out of 89, 41 had desirable , 12 had borderline high and 36 had high total cholesterol which was statically significant. Conclusion: Hypertriglyceridemia and low HDL are the common lipid abnormalities in CKD patients. However LDL and total cholesterol were also increased.
