Serum lipids in uraemic patients on regular haemodialysis.
Measurement of serum lipids in 75 patients on regular haemodialysis showed that they had a higher mean serum triglyceride level than normal subjects. Cholesterol levels were not significantly different. Amongst haemodialysis patients men had higher serum triglycerides than women and women had higher cholesterol levels than men, a situation analogous to that found in normal subjects. In men, serum triglycerides correlated with percent body fat and treatment with Sustanon 250(R) intramuscularly weekly caused a significant rise.
