Hyperlipidemia and type of symptoms

Lipid within human cells is fluid and extracellular fluid (mainly blood), an important element. Lipid Metabolism and many diseases are closely related. In recent years, scientists in the study of lipid metabolism has expended enormous energy, aimed at the prevention and treatment of hyperlipidemia to reduce hyperlipidemia of the body of the hazards. My normal adult blood cholesterol containing 2.86 ~ 5.20 cents mole / L, triglyceride 0. 22 ~ 1.21 cents Moore / or, one or two can increase the diagnosis of hyperlipidemia. Generally, doctors tends to treat hyperlipidemia divided into four categories : (l) hypercholesterolemia : Hyperlipidemia patients accounted for 40% of total serum cholesterol levels, but the normal triglyceride content. (2) Hypertriglyceridemia : hyperlipidemia patients accounted for 20%, serum triglyceride levels increased, and the normal total cholesterol content. (3) mixed hyperlipidemia : hyperlipidemia patients accounted for 40% while the serum total cholesterol and triglyceride content increased. (4) low high density lipoprotein hyperlipidemia : Serum high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol levels lowered. This type of hyperlipidemia can exist independently, also with hypercholesterolemia, or associated with hypertriglyceridemia.
