[Hyperalphalipoproteinemias and medical advise in primary care. Changes of the lipid pattern].
OBJECTIVE
To analyse the modifications in the lipid pattern experienced in the observance of patients with Hyperalpha-lipoproteinaemia (HAL).


METHODS
A prospective follow-up study.


METHODS
La Orden Primary Care Centre, Huelva.


METHODS
120 diagnosed with HAL (cHDL higher than the 90 percentile of their same age and sex group from a reference population with cLDL and Triglycerides less than 150 and 200 mg/dl, respectively) and observed for 2.5 +/- 1.5 years.


RESULTS
Blood pressure, weight, size, cholesterol, cHDL, cLDL, Triglycerides, Glucaemia and Uric acid were determined. The modifications in the diagnosis of HAL, and changes in averages and percentages of several variables, were calculated. Out of 95 people (79.1%) (Age: 42.6 +/- 16), HAL was confirmed in 42.1% (CI, 24.8-59.4) and Hypercholesterolaemia 11a in 20%. There was no lipid disorder in 37.9%.


CONCLUSIONS
HAL at a high rate was not confirmed. After HAL is diagnosed, we must be cautious in our advice on cardiovascular protection, as it could be secondary or be modified over time.
