Article Synopsis
- This study evaluated lipid profile abnormalities in 169 children aged 6 to 42 months in a Brazilian city, finding that 85% had dyslipidemia.
- Key findings showed high prevalence of low HDL-c (72%), increased triglycerides (49%), and high LDL-c (17%), with body mass index (BMI) and age linked to these lipid issues.
- The study concluded that higher caloric and cholesterol intake, along with greater age and BMI, are associated with worse lipid profiles in early childhood.
