[The clinical significance of the risk factor hyperlipoproteinemia. Study on 2700 patients].

In a clinical study on 2,700 inpatients of the medical clinic of Rostock University systematic examinations of the lipids and lipoproteins were carried out. 2.5% of the examined patients showed a primary hyperlipoproteinemia, 14,8% disturbances of the lipid metabolism of different degree of severity, taking into consideration borderline regions of 300 mg/100 ml for cholesterol and of 250 mg/100 ml for triglycerides. In coronary sclerosis and myocardial infarction the frequency of hyperlipoproteinemia was, as we expected, very high, it was about 63 and 77%, respectively. In part groups in primary hyperlipoproteinemia as additional examinations the triglyceride content in the material of liver punction, various coagulation parameters, such as function and kinetics of the platelets were determined and examinations of the secretion of the exocrine pancreas were carried out. In patients of the programme of chronic dialysis, apart from this in temporary dependence on the treatment determinations of the heparin-induced lipoprotein lipase were performed. The consequences resulting from the mutual relations of the factor of risk hyperlipoproteinemia to the diseases of various organic systems are shown.
