Objective: As no studies were reported from Bangladesh, the present study was conducted on serum lipid profile, i.e. triglyceride TG), total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) and high density lipoproteincholesterol (HDL-C) in Bangladeshi patients with cholelithiasis
Patients and methods: A total of 44 adult patients with cholelithiasis and 30 healthy subjects as normal controls (NC) were included in the study. The blood samples were taken from fasting patients at diagnosis before cholecystectomy (Serum-I0), gall bladder bile during cholecystectomy (Bile- I0) and blood sample again after 2-3 months at follow-up (Serum-II0) and from fasting NC subjects. TG, TC, LDL-C and HDL-C were quantitated in serum and bile by standard methods using research kits from reputed companies. The results were compared statistically by.. Read More»
