ABSTRACT
Data on 318 cases of coronary artery disease [Ischemic heart disease] was analysed to study the relationship between coronary artery disease and hyperlipidaemia and the ale and sex distribution of hyperlipidaemic patients. Serum lipid estimation was done on 246 males and 72 females. 111 cases [3-1.9%] were found to be hyperlipidaemic. 75.67% of these patients were males while 21.33%, were females. Peak-age incidence was in the 41 to 6O years age group which constitutes 67.54%. 45.04% had elevated serum cholestrol only [Type IIa] while 29.73% showed elevation of both serum cholestrol and serum triglycerides [Type IIb]. High demoity lipoprotein cholestrol was below 40 mg/ 100 ml in 18% of the cases
