PLASMA LIPIDS IN SOME CARDIOVASCULAR DISORDERS.

1. The different fractions of plasma lipids, for example, total cholesterol, beta-lipoprotein cholesterol, phospholipids, triglycerides, non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) and lipoprotein percentage, were estimated in patients suffering from coronary heart disease, essential hypertension, cor pulmonale and chronic congestive cardiac failure and in some normal subjects of the same age groups and of similar economic and social status as the patients.2. Plasma total cholesterol, beta-lipoprotein cholesterol and phospholipids did not differ in the patients suffering from coronary heart disease when compared with the normal controls. Plasma triglycerides, NEFA and beta-lipoprotein percentage were increased in these patients.3. No change in the plasma lipids from normal was observed in patients suffering from essential hypertension. All the fractions of plasma lipids except NEFA and lipoprotein values were found diminished in patients suffering from cor pulmonale and chronic congestive heart failure.Lipidos del Plasma in Certe Disordines Cardiovascular1. Le varie fractiones de lipido del plasma—i.e., cholesterol total, cholesterol lipoproteina beta, phospholipidos, triglyceridos, non-esterificate acidos grasse, e procentages de lipoproteina alpha e beta—esseva determinate in patientes sufrente de morbo cardiac coronari, de hypertension essential, de corde pulmonal, o de chronic congestive discompensation cardiac e etiam in un gruppo de subjectos normal del mesme gruppos de etate e de simile stato economic e social como le patientes.2. Le valores pro cholesterol total, pro cholesterol lipoproteina beta, e pro phospholipido in le plasma non differeva inter le patientes suffrente de morbo cardiac coronari e le normal subjectos de controlo. Le valores pro triglycerido, pro non-esterificate acido grasse, e pro le procentage de lipoproteina beta esseva augmentate in iste patientes.3. Nulle deviation ab le norma in le valores pro le lipidos del plasma esseva trovate in patientes con hypertension essential. Omne le valores pro le fractiones de lipido del plasma, con le exception del valores pro non-esterificate acido grasse e pro lipoproteina, se monstrava reducite in patientes suffrente con corde pulmonal e con chronic congestive discompensation cardiac.
