Abstract

OBJECTIVE: In our study, the importance of the computational tests such as non-HDL cholesterol and Total cholesterol to HDL ratio for evaluating blood lipid levels were investigated.METHODS: The measured and calculated lipid parameters of 683 patients whose test inputs were done from Family Medicine Clinic were evaluated. The number of the patients were determined who had high Non-HDL cholesterol and total cholesterol / HDL cholesterol however the the routine lipid parameters were in the acceptable range.RESULTS: According to our results, 45 6.6% patients had high non-HDL cholesterol values and 127 %18,6 patients had high TC / HDL-cholesterol levels. Also, there were 11 1.6% patients with high non-HDL-cholesterol levels, and 39 %5,7 patients with high TC / HDL cholesterol ratio, while all routine lipid parameters were in acceptable limits. CONCLUSION: The addition of Non-HDL cholesterol and TC / HDL-cholesterol ratio to routine laboratory results would be beneficial because it can create an alert to clinicians in terms of lipid disorders.

Abstract

AMAÇ: Çalışmamızda, kan lipid düzeylerinin değerlendirilmesinde, hesaplamalı test olan Non-HDL kolesterol ve Total kolesterol/HDL kolesterol değerlendirilmesinin önemi incelenmiştir.YÖNTEMLER: Aile hekimliği polikliniğinden yapılan laboratuvar istemlerinden 683 hastanın hem ölçülen hem de hesaplanan lipid parametreleri değerlendirildi. Rutinde çalışılan lipid parametrelerine göre kabul edilebilir aralıkta olup da Non-HDL kolesterol ve Total kolesterol/HDL değerine göre hedef değerlerin üstünde kalan hasta sayıları belirlendi. BULGULAR: Çalışmamızın sonuçlarına göre, 45 %6,6 hasta yüksek Non-HDL kolesterol değerlerine ve 127 %18,6 hasta yüksek TK/HDL-K oranına sahiptir. Tüm rutin lipid parametreleri kabul edilebilir sınırlarda iken, Non-HDL kolesterol değerleri yüksek olan 11 %1,6 hasta ve ve TK/HDL kolesterol oranı yüksek olan 39 %5,7 hasta saptandı. saptandı.SONUÇ: Non-HDL kolesterol değerinin ve TK/HDL-K oranının rutin lipit sonuçlarına eklenmesi, klinisyenlere lipit bozukluğu açısından uyarı oluşturabileceğinden faydalı olacaktır.
