Investigation of Dyslipidemia and Lipid Profile Ratios Among Patients in Tertiary Care Hospitals

Dyslipidemia, characterized by imbalances in lipid profiles, has emerged as a multifaceted health challenge in the population. Factors such as urbanization, dietary shifts, and genetic variations contribute to the rising prevalence of abnormal lipid levels. This condition significantly amplifies the risk of cardiovascular diseases, a leading cause of mortality. This study focused on dyslipidemia, risk factors, prevalence, evaluating the ratio of cholesterol to HDL (High density lipoproteins), triglyceride to HDL, LDL (Low density lipoproteins) to HDL, Cholesterol to LDL, triglyceride to LDL,HDL to LDL along with their comparative analysis and age-related patterns of dyslipidemia. A total of 100 were collected, comprising 64 males and 36 females. The findings revealed a significant prevalence of dyslipidemia, reaching 86%. Breakdown of lipid profiles showed specific prevalence rates for cholesterol (29%), triglycerides (50%), HDL (48%), and LDL (31%). Alarmingly, out of the 100, only 14 individuals had a normal lipid profile, indicating a high incidence of dyslipidemia in the region. Additionally, the study highlighted an age-dependent increase in the likelihood of developing dyslipidemia. The high prevalence of dyslipidemia is an important public health problem. Enhanced public health preventive measures should be implemented to better diagnose and comprehensively treat dyslipidemia.
