    The comparison of classical and newly designed anthropometric indices in the assessment of Dyslipidemia
    (UMT Lahore, 2019) M. MUNEEB SOHAIL
    It has been shown that dyslipidemia involves low concentrations of HDL but high concentrations of other plasma lipids. This study reanalyzes the relation between plasma lipids and various anthropometric parameters. In this cross-sectional type of study, the participants (n=53) were recruited for the study. Participants were given one day free health camps and they were anthropometrically measured. Plasma lipid fractions were accordingly determined. Statistically significant and non-significant results were obtained for different lipoprotein fractions. Although BMI was a good classical indicator of obesity, but other indicators like ABSI and BRI, also proved significant in assessing the type and severity of dyslipidemia. Different lipoprotein fractions behaved differently with anthropometric parameters. Our study includes 79% of dyslipidemic while 21% of non-dyslipidemic patients. Males were more inclined towards lipid abnormalities than females especially HDL abnormality. Abnormal HDL level was mostly associated with rural population. But consumption of fast food may prove fatal for lowering the HDL level in urban population also.
