Hyperlipidemic index

The indicators of hyperlipidemia mainly include total cholesterol, triglycerides, low density lipoprotein cholesterol and high density lipoprotein cholesterol. 1. Total cholesterol When total cholesterol exceeds the normal range, it may indicate an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. This is because too much cholesterol is deposited in the blood vessel wall, which easily leads to the occurrence and development of atherosclerosis. 2. Triglyceridemia is not only associated with the risk of cardiovascular disease, but may also cause pancreatitis and other problems. Its increase may be closely related to poor eating habits, obesity, lack of exercise and other factors. 3. LDL cholesterol High levels of LDL cholesterol promote the formation of atherosclerotic plaques, further increasing the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. 4. High density lipoprotein cholesterol High levels of HDL cholesterol help transport cholesterol from peripheral tissues back to the liver for metabolism, playing a role in protecting cardiovascular disease. If its level is too low, it is not conducive to the regulation of blood lipids. For patients with hyperlipidemia, these indicators need to be comprehensively considered, and corresponding treatment measures should be taken according to specific conditions, including improving lifestyle, such as reasonable diet, increasing exercise, controlling weight, quitting smoking and alcohol restriction, etc. If necessary, lipid-lowering drugs should be used under the guidance of doctors to effectively control blood lipids and reduce the risk of related diseases.
