Abstract
Grossly abnormal serum lipoprotein (Lp) profile which appeared as a broad-midband pattern (BMP) in PAG [polyacrylamide gel] electrophoresis was detected in 67% of uremic patients maintained by prolonged hemodialysis therapy (hemodialysis patients). BMP was ascribed to the presence of a discrete series of Lps which were intermediate between .beta.-migrating LDL [low density lipoprotein] and pre-.beta.-migrating VLDL [very low density lipoprotein] regarding buoyant density, Sf [flotation rate] rate, chemical composition and behavior in electrophoresis.
