RESUMEObjectif : Décrire le profil des lipides sériques des sujets adultes peuls nomades du Nord-Bénin. Méthodes et résultats : Il s'agissait d'une étude transversale à visée descriptive et analytique ayant concerné 58 sujets adultes peuls nomades et 61 non peuls. Les paramètres lipidiques ont été dosés par la méthode enzymatique conventionnelle. Les résultats ont montré que les valeurs moyennes de la cholestérolémie totale (3,43 ± 0,62 mmol/L), de la cholestérolémie HDL (0,93 ± 0,29 mmol/L) et de la cholestérolémie LDL (1,84 ± 0,61 mmol/L) chez les sujets peuls étaient significativement inférieures à celles des sujets non peuls (4,43 ± 1,07 mmol/L ; 1,49 ± 0,37 mmol/L ; 2,51 ± 0,88 mmol/L respectivement). Conclusion et application: Les peuls adultes nomades du Nord-Bénin ont un profil lipidique sérique différent de celui des autres ethnies, avec des concentrations en paramètres lipidiques sériques plus faibles. Nos résultats permettent de suggérer l'adoption du comportement alimentaire des peuls nomades du Nord-Bénin par la population générale afin de prévenir les dyslipidémies et certaines affections cardiovasculaires.

Serum lipids profile of adult nomad Fulani populations in northern BeninABSTRACT Objective: To describe the serum lipids profile of adult nomad Fulani subjects in northern Benin. Methods and results:This work is about a cross-sectional descriptive and analytical study which involved 58 adult nomad subjects of Fulani origin and 61 adult subjects of non Fulani origin. Lipid parameters were analyzed through conventional enzymatic method. The results showed that mean values of total cholesterolemia (3.43 ± 0.62 mmol/L), HDL cholesterolemia (0.93 ± 0.29 mmol/L) and LDL cholesterolemia (1.84 ± 0.61 mmol/L) among Fulani subjects were significantly lower than that of non Fulani subjects (4.43 ± 1.07 mmol/L ; 1.49 ± 0.37 mmol/L ; 2.51 ± 0.88 mmol/L respectively). Conclusion and application: The Fulani nomad adult populations living in northern Benin has a different serum lipids profile of that of other ethnic origins, with lower seric lipidic concentrations' parameters. These results allow us to suggest the adoption of northern Benin's Fulani nomads' dietary pattern for the rest of the Benin population in order to prevent dyslipidemias and other cardiovascular diseases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
