Hyperlipemia and hyperlipoproteinemia [HLP] screening among the children from premature myocardial infarction risk families.
Serum lipids and lipoproteins were investigated in the premature myocardial infarction (PMI) risk families before 45 years of age with the aid of screening for hyperlipemia and hyperlipoproteinemia (HLP): in the case of 174 persons from Csongrád County from the Departments of Internal Medicine I and II and of 42 patients (fathers) suffering from PMI and their 79 "high risk" children from Heves County. In the investigated three groups of "high risk" children the genetically determined antiatherogenic HDL-Ch level diminished in 34.8, 52.3, 40.5 per cent. Significant negative correlation was detected between the serum HDL-Ch and beta-lipoprotein; significant positive correlations were found between the HDL-Ch and the serum lipase activity; between the beta-lipoprotein and the phospholipid level; significant negative correlation was proved between the HDL-Ch and the phospholipid level in the group of PMI patients and their offsprings. The Ch/Tg, and the HDL-Ch ratios were significantly diminished in the PMI patients' group against the risk children' group, while the Ch/HDL-Ch rate was significantly elevated.
