What is Hypertriglyceridemia? Triglycerides are lipid molecules derived from di-etary fat or endogenous synthesis. They are trans-ported from the intestine and liver within plasma lipo-proteins to tissues for use as fuel or to adipose tissue for storage.
resistance, low high-density lipoprotein (HDL), high triglyceride, and hypertension. Hypertriglyceride-mia is classified as primary hypertriglyceridemia when there are no secondary causes identified. Pri-mary hypertriglyceridemia is the result of various genetic defects leading to disordered triglyceride me-tabolism.
The diagnosis of hypertriglyceridemia should be based on fasting serum triglyceride levels.
