ABSTRACT
Plasma homocysteine (9.05 ± 4.78 vs 5.93 ± 1.46μmol/L, P<0.01), plasma fibrinogen (313.76 ± 80.02 vs 275.47 ± 53.77 mg/dL, P<0.01), serum total cholesterol (171.64 ± 35.48 vs 152.62 ± 25.40 mg/dL, P<0.01), serum LDL cholesterol (109.51 ± 36.93 vs 87.6 ± 21.6 mg/dL, P<0.01) and fasting blood sugar (99.89 ± 17.46 vs 90.29 ± 9.85 mg/ dL, P<0.01) were significantly higher in children (n=45) of young adults (≤45 y) with coronary artery disease as compared to control group (n=45). No significant correlation was found for plasma homocysteine level of children with that of their parents in either group, whereas significant correlation was found for plasma fibrinogen of children with their parents in both the groups.
