Association of Plasma Cholesterol Profile in Sudanese Patients with Hypertension
Hypertensive patients showed significantly higher plasma TC and LDL-C but lower HDL-C compared to healthy controls. TC and LDL-C levels significantly positively correlated with age, SBP, and DBP, whereas HDL-C was significantly negatively correlated with SBP, DBP, age, and BMI. Cholesterol management in hypertensive patients reduces the risk for CVDs, a major concern for patients with HTN.
