摘要：

Aim: To assess the role of Triglyceride to High Density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL_C) ratio as a risk factor of coronary heart disease in women Study design: Cross sectional study. Place and duration of study: The study was conducted in Ayub teaching Hospital, Abbottabad, for 8months from January to August, 2010. Methods: The study was conducted in 100 females known cardiac patients and 50 controls who were referred for Exercise tolerance test (ETT) for assessment of angina. The lipid profile for total cholesterol (TC), Triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL_C), Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL_C) levels were determined in fasting blood samples and analyzed for correlation. Results: Lipid profile (TG, and HDL_C) of the patients were deranged. Serum Triglyceride to High density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL_C) ratio was found to be a risk factor for coronary heart disease in women. Conclusions: The results of the investigation indicated that Triglyceride to high density lipoprotein cholesterol is associated with coronary heart disease.
