Study of blood lipid content and occurrence of hyperlipoproteinemias in hypertensive patients of various age.
The level of serum lipids and HLP occurrence were investigated in apparently healthy subjects and in patients with arterial hypertension (essential and systolic forms) aged 20-30, 60-74 and 75-89 years. The increase of total cholesterol and atherogeneity coefficient, HLP occurrence and decrease of alpha-cholesterol content were noted in the control group during aging. The essential hypertension is accompanied by the increased HLP occurrence mainly in 20-30 and 60-74 year-old patients, as compared with the corresponding control groups. The content of serum lipids and HLP occurrence were found to be higher in 75-89-year-old patients within systolic hypertension group.
