There is a relationship between serum lipid levels in children with those of adults. Preventive measures to reduce serum lipid levels should start in childhood.
To study serum lipid levels in a representative sample of children and teenagers from Concepción, Chile.
Serum total, HDL cholesterol and triglycerides were measured in 1,286 males and 816 females from 5 to 18 years old in the city of Concepción.
Mean total cholesterol levels were 159 +/- 30 and 162 +/- 31 mg/dl in males and females respectively. The figures for HDL cholesterol were 46 +/- 11 and 47 +/- 11 mg/dl, for LDL cholesterol were 94 +/- 27 and 96 +/- 29 mg/dl and for triglycerides were 80 +/- 35 and 87 +/- 38 mg/dl. Nine percent of males and 12% of females had a total cholesterol over 200 mg/dl. Likewise 10% of males and 11% of females had a LDL cholesterol over 130 mg/dl.
These numbers will help to plan and perform interventions in children, in order to prevent cardiovascular diseases.
儿童血清脂质水平与成人的血清脂质水平之间存在关联。降低血清脂质水平的预防措施应在儿童期开始。
研究来自智利康塞普西翁的具有代表性的儿童和青少年样本的血清脂质水平。
对康塞普西翁市1286名5至18岁男性和816名女性的血清总胆固醇、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇和甘油三酯进行了测量。
男性和女性的平均总胆固醇水平分别为159±30和162±31mg/dl。高密度脂蛋白胆固醇的数值分别为46±11和47±11mg/dl，低密度脂蛋白胆固醇的数值分别为94±27和96±29mg/dl，甘油三酯的数值分别为80±35和87±38mg/dl。9%的男性和12%的女性总胆固醇超过200mg/dl。同样，10%的男性和11%的女性低密度脂蛋白胆固醇超过130mg/dl。
这些数据将有助于规划和实施针对儿童的干预措施，以预防心血管疾病。
