During the past decade, numerous experimental and clinical studies have demonstrated that many common conditions predisposing to cardiovascular disease, such as hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, diabetes, and smoking.
Thus a population-based study in Aldewaniya city was conducted in sera of 432 people (201 males, 231 females) randomly chosen to define the prevalence of various type of hyperlipidaemia and to establish the reference ranges of serum total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.
People subjects to present study were classified into seven age groups (>20-<70 years).
The prevalence of hyperlipidaemia was higher in females than males.
TC, TG, LDL-cholesterol, and VLDL-cholesterol found to be associated with progressive of age.
