2.__High Density Lipoprotein or HDL__ It is also called the good cholesterol.

3.__Low Density Lipoprotein or LDL___ It is also called the bad cholesterol.

4.__High Density Lipoprotein__ It is considered as the lipoprotein with the highest density.

5.__chylomicrons__ The lipid that stays at the point of origin in electrophoresis.

6.___chylomicrons___ It causes lipemia of serum.

7.___triglycerides___ The food sources of this lipid is meat fat.

8.___triglycerides___ The conversion factor of this lipid, from traditional to S.I. units is 0.01129.

9.___fatty acids____ It is the simplest form of lipid.

Clinical Chemistry Case Study

An elderly male patient was brought to the emergency room complaining of nausea, vomiting and body malaise. He was afebrile and had a blood pressure of 150/100.

The laboratory results were as follows:

Total cholesterol – 1.87 mmol/L

Triglycerides – 1.3 mmol/L

Glucose = 3.8 mmol/L

Hemoglobin = 150 mg/dL

Hematocrit 52 vol%

QUESTIONS:

1. What is the initial impression based on lab results?

2. What further laboratory testing or diagnostic procedure do you recommend?

3. Defend your answers.

ANSWERS:

1. Primary hypertension
2. Cardiac panel test, to include CKMB, AST, LDH, Troponin
 CBC, routine urinalysis, Kidney function tests (BUN, creatinine) could also be performed to rule out other causes.
3. The lab results are normal, so there are no underlying lipid cause, but the BP is slightly elevated, so it is primary hypertension or essential hypertension.
