*Dr. T. V. Sowmya M.D. and Dr. C. Arvind Kumar M.D.
ABSTRACT
In Osmania General Hospital, Lipid analysis is done in fasting state mainly for patients having risk of poor cardiovascular outcome. Experimental and clinical studies have suggested a correlation between the progression of renal disease and dyslipidemia. High Plasma cholesterol, LDL and Triglyceride level and low HDL level have been demonstrated to be independent risk factors for progression of renal disease from CKD stages 1-5 in humans. We conducted this study to evaluate the lipid abnormalities in various stages of chronic kidney disease on the background of these references. We used CKD -EPI formula to calculate the predicted creatinine clearance which is a rough estimation of G.F.R. in staging of Kidney disease.
Keywords: Chronic Kidney Disease, Low Density Lipoprotein, High Density Lipoprotein, Triglycerides, Diabetes Mellitus.
