ABSTRACT
Fasting plasma samples from 29 patients of cirrhosis were analysed for cholesterol and triglycerides and their lipo-protein fractions. The patients included 11 alcoholic cirrhotics consuming over 130 g/day of absolute ethanol and 18 non-alcoholic cirrhotics. The difference in lipid values between the two patient groups was not significant except that VLDL cholesterol was raised in alcoholic cirrhotics (P less than 0.05). However, in comparison to normal healthy controls, the values were significantly altered. The dietary intake, in the two groups showed no difference, except that non-alcoholic cirrhotics consumed more animal proteins. Low intake of exogenous fat and reduced synthesis of endogenous cholesterol in cirrhotic patients seemed to influence the total lipid values.
