Hyperlipidemia diagnostic criteria

At present, the domestic general to adults fasting serum total cholesterol over 572 cents Moore / l, triglycerides Moore more than 1.70 cents / liter, the diagnosis of hyperlipidemia. Total cholesterol in the 5.2 to 5.7 cents Moore / or are referred to as marginal increase.

According to the serum total cholesterol, triglycerides and high-density lipoprotein - the results of cholesterol, hyperlipidemia usually divided into the following four types:

(1) hypercholesterolemia: serum total cholesterol levels increased, more than 572 cents Moore / l, while triglyceride levels normal, that is, triglycerides <1.70 cents Moore / liter.

(2) Hypertriglyceridemia: serum triglyceride levels increased, more than 1.70 cents Moore / l, while the total cholesterol levels normal, that is, total cholesterol <5.72 cents Moore / liter.

(3) combined hyperlipidemia: serum total cholesterol and triglyceride levels are higher, that is, total cholesterol over 572 cents Moore / l, triglycerides Moore more than 1.70 cents / liter.

(4) low high-density lipoprotein hyperlipidemia: serum high-density lipoprotein - cholesterol (HDL-cholesterol) was reduced, <9.0 cents Moore / liter.
