Abstract:
Cholesterol was originally identified as an element of biomembrane with a key role in the regulation of the stability of membrane. Recent researches had revealed that mortality was inversely related to cholesterol levels, and hypocholesterolemia correlated with a high risk of complication. Evidence is now accumulating that low serum cholesterol levels appear to be an independent predictor of short-term mortality.
