[The chylomicronemia under interpretation of the results of detection of lipid profile of blood].

The lipid profile of blood of several population screenings was studied in the framework of the international project HAPIEE. The sampling consisted of 9357 patients aged from 45 to 69 years. All participants of the study were notified in advance about blood sampling on an empty stomach for analysis. The blood serum was not totally clear and triglycerides concentration of 2.65 mmol/l in 16% of cases. The examined patients approved in 3.5% that blood was not taken on an empty stomach. The diabetes mellitus was diagnosed in 1.6% of patients. Among the rest 10.9% of patients with blood samples not totally clear half of them had concentration of glucose in blood higher than 5.5 mmol/l. Some of them probably came to screening not on an empty stomach and did not approve it. The epidemiologic studies require a strict regulation of daytime of food intake prior to blood sampling for analysis. The degree of blood clearness and blood glucose concentrations are to be regulated to and in some case the analysis is to be repeated.
