A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF TRIGLYCERIDES LEVEL BASED ON HIGH DENSITY LIPOPROTEIN CHOLESTEROL IN THREE DISTINCT PHASES OF BLOOD PRESSURE USING MULTIPLE LOGISTIC REGRESSION

Abstract

Atheroscleorosis is a common disorder which hardens the arteries due to the excessive of plaque which are made of fat, cholesterol, calcium and other substances. This study aims to examine factors that are associated directly or indirectly with triglycerides level in the distinct phases of blood pressure. Multiple logistic regression was employed in order to assess the associated factors of triglycerides level in three distinct phases of blood pressure. The statistical analysis revealed that there are partially significant differences due to the different distinct phases of blood pressure. High density lipoprotein cholesterol, total cholesterol and proconvertin were the factors which statistically significant across three distinct phases of blood pressure. This finding shows that the triglycerides might be a valuable marker for atherosclerosis in three distinct phases of blood pressure.
