Abstract
Background: The high prevalence of total cholesterol and triglyceride level in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients reveals significant association between CKD and dyslipidemia.
Objectives: The aim of study the total cholesterol and triglyceride levelin patients of CKD and study the correlation between total cholesterol, triglycerides and severity of renal diseases.
Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study were conducted among CKD patients attending OPD and admitted in Medicine department of GSVM Medical College, Kanpur from January 2018 to October 2019 to investigate thyroid function and lipid profile in CKD stage 3–5. A total of 100 newly diagnosed and known CKD cases (stage 3 to stage 5) would be included in the study.
Result: Correlation between triglycerides of case and control where mean of control group is99.05±18.93, and case group is 180.61±89.77 where p value is 0.0001.correlation between serum total cholesterol of case and control group where mean of control group is 139.58±20.84, and case group is 167.49±18.24, where p value is 0.0001.
Conclusion: The correlation of Total Cholesterol and Triglycerides in CKD patients is found to be highly significant.
