“…Esta relación es similar a la encontrada por Bercedo y colaboradores, en niños españoles con edades entre 8 y 15 años de edad, donde las niñas tuvieron valores más altos de c-VLDL que las niños (35). El valor promedio de colesterol total para la población estudiada (170mg/dL) fue mayor al encontrado en la ciudad de Belém, Brasil (142mg/ dL) (31). Esta diferencia puede deberse a que la escuela brasileña era de carácter privado en comparación con el colegio Manuel Elkin Patarroyo y el colegio Manuel Elkin Patarroyo.…”

“…12,[16][17][18] Because of this, since Page 12 2006, the Brazilian Society of Cardiology (SBC) started recommending cut-off for total cholesterol in children and adolescents in 150 mg/dl and routine supervision from 170 mg cholesterol/dl of blood for prevention cardiovascular diseases. 13 Studies also show that HDL-C have a protective role in the development of atherogenesis 19,20 ; and the increase of its levels would be directly associated with reduced cardiovascular risk. 21,22 In this present study, the behavior was regularly among the different age groups, but was observed between the sexes, significantly higher levels in females, which may explain the lower prevalence of vascular events (CVD and/or stroke) in all ranges age in females compared to males.…”

“…In Brazil, there are no national epidemiological data on the prevalence of this disease that cover the entire country. However, specific studies have shown high prevalences of dyslipidemia in children and adolescents, varying between 3.1% and 46.5%, in some regions of this country [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] . Some studies have been performed to assess factors associated with dyslipidemia [3][4][5][6][7] .…”
