obesity Flashcards
dyslipidemia
abnormal amount of lipids in the blood
dyslipidemia is defined by the presence of
elevated levels of total cholesterol or LDL-C, elevated TG, low HDL
___% of people in the US have dyslipidemia
30
most contributing factor to dyslipidemia
poor dietary and lifestyle choices
very high levels of cholesterol often cluster within
families
foundation for the treatment of dyslipidemia
lifestyle changes
aerobic training consistently reduces ____ levels by ____, but does not have an affect on _____ or ____
LDL-C, 3-6mg/dL, HDL-C, TG
resistance training appears to reduce ___ and ___ concentrations by ____
6-0 mg/dL
______ appear to have important beneficial effects on improving dyslipidemia and should be encouraged
dietary improvement, weight loss
non-HDL-C: desirable level
<130
non-HDL-C: abode desirable
130-159
non-HDL-C: borderline high
160-189
non-HDL-C: high
190-219
non-HDL-C: very high
> 220
LDL-C: desirable
<100
LDL-C: above desirable
100-129
LDL-C: borderline high
130-159
LDL-C: high
160-189
LDL-C: very high
> 190
HDL-C: low men and women
<40
<50
triglyceride: normal
<150
triglyceride: borderline high
150-199
triglyceride: high
200-499
triglyceride: very high
> 500
statin drugs, also known as ________, are very effective for the treatment of dyslipidemia
HMG-CoA reductase inhibtors
the four most important groups of people who benefit from statins are
established CVD
LDL-C levels >190
with diabetes who are >40 y/o
estimated 10-yr risk for CVD of >7.5%
dyslipidemia: exercise test is not required for
asymptomatic individuals
use caution when testing individuals with dyslipidemia because
undeterred underlying CVD may be present
dyslipidemia special consideration should be given to the presence of
other chronic diseases and health conditions that may require modifications to standard exercise testing protocols and modalities
