Serum lipids in chronic renal failure.
The serum lipids and lipoprotein patterns in 100 adult patients with nonnephrotic chronic renal failure were analyzed retrospectively. Hypertriglyceridemia was found in 43% of these patients. Forty-nine of the 100 had a normal lipoprotein pattern, whereas 42 had type IV hyperlipoproteinemia. This abnormal lipoprotein pattern could not be correlated with the degree of renal impairment, the type of renal disease, or with the patient's age, sex, weight, or diet.
