説明

Epidemiological studies have shown that the incidence of coronary artery disease increases as the LDL- C, TC1-9), and TG10, 11) levels rise and the HDL-C level lowers5, 8, 12) both in Japan and in Western countries (Fig.1). At present, prevalence of coronary artery disease in Japan is much lower than that in Western countries13-16). However, recent increases in the LDL-C and TC levels in Japanese associated with so-called Westernization of diet implies future increases in coronary artery disease. In this guideline, therefore, criteria for the diagnosis of dyslipidemia were defined as in Table 1, with a greater emphasis on the prevention of coronary artery disease.<BR>The first step in this diagnostic procedure is to measure TC, TG, and HDL-C levels after overnight fasting. LDL-C level is then calculated by use of the Friedewald equation (LDL-C=TC – HDL-C – TG/5). The LDL-C level may be measured by a homogenous method especially in the case of postprandial examination or when the TG level is 400 mg/dL or higher.
