Abstract- Aim: Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is considered the most life threating disease in the world.
Our study aims to estimate the association of lipid profile, other risk factors with CAD development.
Method: Blood samples were taken from cross-sectional sample (n=94) of CAD inpatients (68 males and
26 females) recorded at the period of 1/6/2008 to 16/8/2008 at El-shefaa hospital of Gaza. The patient
history of age, sex, BMI, diabetic, hypertension, smoking, physical activity, stress, working and family
history were collected by questionnaire, hospital administration and nursing data in coordination with the
Department Physicians. We have conducted this study on hospitalized Palestinian CAD patients. Results:
the percentage of gender were (72.3%) males and (27.7%) females, the mean patients age was 57.3 yrs.
within range (45 – 66 yrs.). the means of serum cholesterol, triglyceride (TG) and Low Density Lipoprotein
(LDL) were lowered and closed to international ranges, unlike High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) level. In
addition, the distribution of Sedentary Physical Activity was the highest CAD risk factor, particularly
females were higher than males (P=0.001), male smokers were the second highest risk factor and the
stressed females were the third highest risk factor (P=0.001). In addition, we noticed the total
cholesterol/HDL ratio is higher indicator than LDL/HDL and HDL/LDL ratio.
