Background: The COPD patients are expected to have a deranged lipid profile for various reasons like smoking, aging, and using such drugs as steroids. Aims of study to estimate the lipid profile level in COPD patients.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 50 COPD patients and including 50 control were enrolled in the study.
Results: The lipid profile in COPD patients, unpaired t test was performed and it was observed that COPD patients showed significantly higher serum levels of TC, TG, LDL and serum concentrations of HDL were also decreased significantly compared to controls.
