Abstract |
A significant redistribution of cholesterol in lipoproteins following ingestion of large doses of vitamin E is documented. Especially vitamin E has been reported to increase serum high density lipoprotein(HDL) cholesterol. The inverse relationship between HDL-cholesterol and risk of develoing coronary disease was well known.
Present study was undertaken to determine whether the corelation between vitamin E and HDL-cholesterol was significant in mother and newborn. Also the levels of serum vitamin E, HDL-cholesterol, cholesterol and triglyceride in mother and newborn was determined. The vitamin E and HDL-cholesterol levels of mother were significantly higher than those of the newborn. The corelation between vitamin E and HDL-cholesterol in mother and new-
born was not significant. The corelation of vitamin E levels between mothers and their newborns was not significant and that of HDL-cholesterol levels was also not significant. Both serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels of mother were significantly higher than those of newborn.
