The serum lipoprotein (LP) composition in hyperlipoproteinaemia (HLP) type III, when studied in a population of 50-year-old men, was characterized by a high cholesterol/triglyceride ratio in the very low density lipoprotien (VLDL) fraction, a high low density lipoprotein (LDL) triglyceride concentration and a low LDL cholesterol/triglyceride ratio. No one of these three variables, however, was found to be a suitable single parameter for diagnosis for HLP type III because of an overlap between HLP type III and other LP patterns with regard to the studied variables. In an effort to find a parameter with a better discriminative capacity a "III-index" was invented.
在对一群50岁男性进行研究时，Ⅲ型高脂蛋白血症（HLP）患者的血清脂蛋白（LP）组成具有以下特征：极低密度脂蛋白（VLDL）部分的胆固醇/甘油三酯比值较高，低密度脂蛋白（LDL）甘油三酯浓度较高，而LDL胆固醇/甘油三酯比值较低。然而，这三个变量中的任何一个都未被发现是诊断Ⅲ型HLP的合适单一参数，因为在研究变量方面，Ⅲ型HLP与其他LP模式存在重叠。为了找到一个具有更好鉴别能力的参数，人们发明了一个“Ⅲ型指数”。
