This article presents the basic methods and populations of the Lipid Research Clinics (LRC) Program Prevalence Study. The purpose is to provide a frame of reference for the other articles in this monograph; hence, the populations and major data collected are described briefly, as are procedures for enhancement of data quality and approaches to statistical analysis. More detailed descriptions for some procedures are included in the pertinent articles. The two sequential screening examinations of the Prevalence Study provided 60,502 participants from centers in the United States and Canada for the first phase and 13,852 for the second. The monograph is based on data from 11,657 white and 644 black participants aged 6 years or older screened at both visits.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D006951 Hyperlipoproteinemias Conditions with abnormally elevated levels of LIPOPROTEINS in the blood. They may be inherited, acquired, primary, or secondary. Hyperlipoproteinemias are classified according to the pattern of lipoproteins on electrophoresis or ultracentrifugation. Hyperlipoproteinemia
D007009 Hypolipoproteinemias Conditions with abnormally low levels of LIPOPROTEINS in the blood. This may involve any of the lipoprotein subclasses, including ALPHA-LIPOPROTEINS (high-density lipoproteins); BETA-LIPOPROTEINS (low-density lipoproteins); and PREBETA-LIPOPROTEINS (very-low-density lipoproteins). Hypolipoproteinemia,Hypoprebetalipoproteinemia
D007223 Infant A child between 1 and 23 months of age. Infants
D008075 Lipoproteins, HDL A class of lipoproteins of small size (4-13 nm) and dense (greater than 1.063 g/ml) particles. HDL lipoproteins, synthesized in the liver without a lipid core, accumulate cholesterol esters from peripheral tissues and transport them to the liver for re-utilization or elimination from the body (the reverse cholesterol transport). Their major protein component is APOLIPOPROTEIN A-I. HDL also shuttle APOLIPOPROTEINS C and APOLIPOPROTEINS E to and from triglyceride-rich lipoproteins during their catabolism. HDL plasma level has been inversely correlated with the risk of cardiovascular diseases. High Density Lipoprotein,High-Density Lipoprotein,High-Density Lipoproteins,alpha-Lipoprotein,alpha-Lipoproteins,Heavy Lipoproteins,alpha-1 Lipoprotein,Density Lipoprotein, High,HDL Lipoproteins,High Density Lipoproteins,Lipoprotein, High Density,Lipoprotein, High-Density,Lipoproteins, Heavy,Lipoproteins, High-Density,alpha Lipoprotein,alpha Lipoproteins
