Résumé
Fifty six human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive patients were studied and their serum lipid composition was compared with 35 HIV negative controls. Majority of the patients were in CDC group IV (66%) whereas 17.9% and 16.1% were in CDC groups II and III, respectively. The mean level of triglycerides was much higher in advanced stage of the disease (183.32 +/- 40.6 mg% v/s 92.5 +/- 20.6 mg%). It was also observed that mean level of cholesterol were much lower in advanced disease (151.24 +/- 35.86 mg% v/s 188.2 +/- 28.5 mg%). The mean levels of LDL-C, VLDL-C, HDL-C were not significantly different statistically in the HIV positive group of patients compared to controls.

Seventeen relatives of patients with Duchenne's muscular dystrophy (Group A) and 6 relatives of patients with adult type of muscular dystrophy (Group B) were studied. Short PR interval on electrocardiogram and abnormal systolic time interval (STI) were consistent findings in 14 of 15 female relatives (93.35%) in group A, while these criteria were lacking in group B. Myopathic pattern (i.e. tachycardia, short PR interval, R/S ratio in V1 greater than 1.5, significant Q wave in V4, V5, V6 on electrocardiogram) was present in two (13.35%) of 15 female relatives from group A. It was absent in group B. Male relatives in both the groups had normal electrocardiogram and normal systolic time interval.
