Table 2.

Serial fasting lipid profile during crises and in between.

Fasting lipid profile Age/year
8 months (2016) during crisis* 1 year (2016) follow up 3 years (2018) during crisis* 4 years (2019) follow up
Cholesterol mmol/L (<5.2) 5.8 4.1 3 4.65
TG mmol/L (0.45–1.71) 4.5 1.2 5.1 1.44
HDL mmol/L (>0.91) 1 1.75 0.1 1.39
LDL mmol/L (<3.4) 2.7 1.78 0.59 2.58
VLDL mmol/L (0.31–0.78) 2.1 0.57 2.31 0.68
T. cholesterol/HDL 5.8 2.34 30 3.34
LDL/HDL 2.7 1.01 5.9 1.85
TG/HDL mmol/dL (<1.33) 4.5 0.68 51 1

*It should be noted that the deranged lipid profile was detected primarily upon rehydration. 'Crisis' here denotes the whole-time interval until re-compensation.

HDL, high-density lipoprotein; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; T. cholesterol, total cholesterol; TG, triglycerides; VLDL, very low-density lipoprotein.
