Alterations in serum lipid concentrations following skeletal trauma.
Serial studies of 118 patients following fractures of the pelvis or lower extremity demonstrated a significant association between hypoxemia and the serum concentration of nonesterified free fatty acids. Serum lipase levels were similar but not as significant. No differences were noted in the serum concentrations of either triglycerides or cholesterol.
