ABSTRACT
To determine the prevalence of hyperlipidemia in obese and non-obese patients with diagnosed coronary artery disease. This hospital based descriptive study was conducted in Cardiology Department of Postgraduate Medical Institute, Lady Reading Hospital, Peshawar from 15[th] March 2005 to 30[th] May 2006. A total of 200 patients with diagnosed coronary artery disease were enrolled, 100 were classified as obese and 100 as non-obese. There were 139 males and 61 females in total 200 CAD patients. Serum triglycerides level was 184 +/- 82 in obese patients and 158 +/- 68 in non-obese patients [p = 0.015]. Serum cholesterol level was 208 +/- 61 in obese and 180 +/- 67 in non obese [p = 0.001]. Serum HDL level was significantly more in non obese [48 +/- 36] as compared to obese [37 +/- 8] [p =0.005]. Serum LDL was more [157 +/- 49] in obese as compared to [148 +/- 44] in non obese but with no statistical difference [p =0.156]. Obese CAD patients had significantly had higher levels of triglycerides, total cholesterol with lower HDL levels as compared to non obese CAD patients
