Lipid profile of 50 offsprings of parents with @entity741 and 15 control @entity1 aged 5-16 years was studied. The @entity1 in both the groups were categorized into 3 sub groups, 5-10, 11-15 _ > 15 years. The Serum total @entity165 levels (mean +/- S.D) (in mg/dl) in the test group were 169.8 +/- 15.13, 173.34 +/- 33.56, 177.4 +/- 27.89 respectively for the 3 age subgroups. The Serum LDL @entity165 levels (mean +/- S.D) (in mg/dl) in the test group were 102.2 +/- 15.25, 95.13 +/- 30.38, 101.09 +/- 26.96 respectively. The serum total @entity165 levels (mean +/- S.D) (in mg/dl) in the control group were 123 +/- 1.33, 118 +/- 7.51 and 127.4 +/- 5.77 respectively for the 3 age subgroups. The serum LDL @entity165 levels (mean + S.D) (in mg/dl) in the control group were 56.64 +/- 8.75, 43.36 +/- 6.10 and 45.16 +/- 6.78 respectively. The serum total @entity165 and LDL @entity165 levels in the test group were significantly higher as compared to controls (p > 0.05). Among test subjects, 54% had elevated total @entity165 (> 170 mg/dl) and 38% had elevated LDL @entity165 (> 110 mg/dl). These cases had a significant correlation with elevated parental total @entity165 and LDL @entity165 levels (p > 0.05). Thus, a selective screening of the offsprings of parents with premature @entity741 and @entity1007 is advocated.
