[Lipid profile in children from Rivas-Vaciamadrid. Two-year follow-up].
OBJECTIVE
Evaluate the lipid profiles in children after two years of follow-up.


METHODS
Longitudinal cohort study. A two years follow-up of a group of children since they were 6 years old. Blood analysis were carried in every children measuring total cholesterol, triglycerides, cLDL, cHDL, apoproteins A and B. It also included TD/cHDL, cLDL/cHDL, Apo B/A ratios and atherogenic index.


RESULTS
200 mg/dl, cLDL > 135 mg/dl and Apo B > 100 mg/dl in the follow-up was of 9.51, 5.18 and 8 for those children who had in the initial study these same values. The values of lipid profile and of the index studied improved in the two years of follow-up. This improvement has an statistical signification only in men.


CONCLUSIONS
There is a significant correlation between the values of the lipid profile and the index measured in those children who were six years old in the beginning of the two years follow-up.
