“…Prevalence of high LDL-C, low HDL-C, and high triglycerides were 29.6%, 47.1%, and 38.6%, respectively. 31 The prevalence of dyslipidemia and hypertriglceridemia among Saudi population was about 40% and 44% respectively. Logistic regression analysis revealed that obesity/overweight, age, diabetes were the most important significant predictors of dyslipidemia.…”

Background: Lipid Abnormalities are major risk factors for coronary artery diseases. Prevalence of dyslipidemia is high in India shown by various studies due to lifestyle changes. This study was conducted to estimate the prevalence of dyslipidemia and its association with body fat percentage, body mass index, diabetes, tobacco use and hypertension.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 300 male employees from a packaging and binding industry in Maharashtra. Behavioural data, anthropometric measurements and blood collection were conducted by trained staff using standard instruments.Results: Majority of the participants were in the age group between 30-60 years. Overall prevalence of dyslipidemia was 50.7% among study subjects.15.3%, 27% 62%, 23% and 50.7% of participants had high serum cholesterol, high triglycerides, low high density lipoprotein (HDL), high low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high cholesterol/HDL ratio respectively. Logistic regression analysis showed abnormal cholesterol level was associated with high body fat percentage and hypertension. Abnormal triglyceride level was associated with high blood sugar and hypertension. High LDL level was associated only with hypertension. Abnormal HDL level and high cholesterol/HDL ratio was strongly associated with age (>40 years).Conclusions: The prevalence of dyslipidemia was high among male industrial workers in India. Screening programs should be conducted at work places for early detection of dyslipidemia. Information, education and communication (IEC) programs based on lifestyle modification like healthy diet habits, regular physical activity for weight control and tobacco cessation need to be implemented at work places.

“…6 An earlier study 18 reported no relationship between dyslipidemia treatment and place of residence, but our study demonstrated positive association between dyslipidemia awareness or treatment with urban residence. Similarly, studies in Malaysia and Thailand, 33,34 showed high awareness and treatment levels between raised LDL-C and urban centers.…”

Background:Effective management of dyslipidemia could play a vital role in the control of cardiovascular diseases. This study aimed to determine the awareness, treatment, control, and determinants of dyslipidemia in middle-aged and older Chinese adults in China. METHODS Using data from the 2015 CNSSPP, a nationally representative sample of 135,403 Chinese adults aged over 40 years were included in the cross-sectional analysis. Dyslipidemia was defined according to the 2016 Chinese guidelines for the management of dyslipidemia in adults. Models were constructed to adjust for sociodemographic, clinical and behavioral characteristics with bivariate and multivariable logistic regressions. RESULTSOverall, 51.1% of the subjects were women. Sixty-four percent (36,958/57760) were aware of their condition, of whom 18.9% (6993/36958) received treatment, and of whom 7.3 % (504 /6993) had controlled lipids. Women versus men had higher proportions of awareness, treatment, and control (69.2% vs. 58.3%, 63.8% vs.64.1% and 7.7% vs.7.0%; p< 0.001), respectively. Dyslipidemia treatment was higher in men from rural than urban areas (15.4% vs. 10.6%; p<0.001). Most subjects (94.3%), had dyslipidemia in their family. The proportion of awareness was higher among urban compared to rural residents across all the socioeconomic regions: low-income (68.8% vs. 60.4%), middle-income (69.4% vs.63.9%), and high-income (66% vs.58.6%), respectively (all p< 0.001). In the multivariable analysis, significant associations were found between awareness and women, urban residents, having a family history, and central obesity. Being a woman, having a personal history of stroke or CHD, being a drinker, having health insurance, and persons who lived in high-income regions had higher odds of receiving treatment. Adults in the 50 - 59 years age group, having health insurance, central and general obesity, living in a stroke belt or northern zone, urban area, and women showed statistically significant relationships with control. CONCLUSIONS Dyslipidemia awareness was moderately high, but treatment and control were low. Improvements in education programs and therapeutic management may be necessary to promote and optimize the management of dyslipidemia.

“…[9], [10] There are a variety of factors that contribute to the prevalence of dyslipidaemia, including geographic location, social and economic status, age, gender and the impact of these factors has been well studied. [11], [12], [13], [14], [15] Cholesterol and lipoproteins levels increase with age in both genders, [16], [17] but the more pronounced increase has been reported in females than in males. [9] The purpose of the study is to find the lipid abnormalities in type 2 Diabetes Mellitus patients…”
