Both Jing and Mulao nationalities are the isolated minorities in China. Little is known about the prevalence of @entity2299 between the two ethnic groups. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the differences in serum lipid profiles, the prevalence of @entity2299 and their risk factors between the Jing and Mulao populations. A cross-sectional study of @entity2299 was conducted in Dongxing city, Guangxi, China, during Dec 2011 and Jan 2012. A total of 1254 subjects of Jing and 1251 @entity1 of Mulao were surveyed by a stratified randomized sampling. Information on demography, diet and lifestyle was collected with standardized questionnaire. Serum lipid levels were detected using the commercially available kits. The levels of low-density lipoprotein @entity165 ( @entity11429 ), apolipoprotein (Apo) A1, and the ratio of @entity1675 to @entity755 were lower but the levels of @entity755 were higher in Jing than in Mulao (P < 0.001 for all). The prevalence of @entity2298 (32.38% vs. 24.38%), high @entity755 (35.25% vs. 15.35%) and low @entity1675 / @entity755 ratio (22.65% vs. 16.87%) was higher and low high-density lipoprotein @entity165 (0.48% vs. 2.16%), high @entity11429 (17.54% vs. 40.53%) and low @entity1675 (5.98% vs. 11.43%) was lower in Jing than in Mulao (P < 0.001 for all). The risk factors for serum lipid parameters and @entity407 were different between the two ethnic groups. Serum lipid profiles, the prevalence of @entity2299 and their risk factors are different between the Jing and Mulao populations. These differences may result from the combined effects of different diet, lifestyle, and genetic factors.
