Lipid Disorders (Dyslipidemia) (TOPIC 1) Flashcards
Elevated lipoproteins in the blood particularly LDL and VLDL
Hyperlipoproteinemia
Low level of lipoproteins
Hypolipoproteinemia
Hyperlipoproteinemia that is high in triglycerides
Hypertriglyceridemia
Hyperlipoproteinemia that is high in cholesterol
Hypercholesterolemia
Types of Hypolipopretinemia
Hypoalphalipoproteinemia
Hypobetalipoproteinemia
Causes of Lipid Disorders
Primiary/famiial
Secondary/acquired
due to genetic mutation, identified according to FREDRICKSON’S CLASSIFICATION.
Primary/familial
due to underlying diseases such as diabetes mellitus.
Diabetic dyslipidemia.
Secondary/ acquired
A condition in which arteries reduced its elasticity and become hardened.
Arteriosclerosis
a type arteriosclerosis due to plaque builds up in the lumen of arteries. Plaque is made up mostly of cholesterol.
Atherosclerosis
Impaired blood flow to the heart or brain due to plaque build up along the blood vessels as a result of atherosclerosis.
Coronary heart disease and Cerebrovascular disease
Risk factors are cigarette smoking, hypertension, family history, age, DM, obesity and sedentary life style, genetic mutation etc.
