The results of this study suggest that the majority of patients
present some type of dyslipidemia afte r transplantation,
with the most common types being reduced HDL,
followed by hypertriglyceridemia. The predictive factors
for the dyslipidemias studied include the existence of at
least one potentially modifiable variable related to body
composition, food intake or indications of the levels of
physical activity. We should remain attentive to the need
to institute measures for preventing the development of
dyslipidemia after liver transplantation, decreasing cardiovascular
risk, and thereby prolonging the survival of
these individuals.
