Abstract:
Goal: To determine average values of serum total cholesterol, triglycerides, high density lipid cholesterol and low density lipid cholesterol of Mongolian adults, and compare the average values by age groups, gender and regions.
Materials and Methods: Serum was separated from morning blood samples collected from 1737 individuals 15-64 years of age (707 males and 1030 females) from 21 aimags and Ulaanbaatar city, and stored at-30°C until analysis. Mean levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL and LDL were determined using photometric system.
Results: The overall mean serum level of cholesterol was 159.06 mg/dl (95% CI 155.58-162.53), of triglycerides was 121.65 mg/dl (95% CI 116.77-126.53), of HDL was 61.12 mg/dl (95% CI 59.77-62.47), and of LDL was 130.53 mg/dl (95% CI 128.26-132.80). When the survey participants were divided into five age groups (15-24, 25-34, 35-44, 45-54 and 55-64 years of age) and their mean levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL and LDL were compared, no statistically significant differences were observed between age groups.
When the mean levels of lipids were compared between sexes, statistically significant differences were observed for cholesterol and triglycerides, and no statistically significant differences were observed for HDl and LDL.
