The concentrations were determined of triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (Ch), high density fraction of (HDL-Ch), low density fraction of cholesterol (LDL-Ch), apolipoprotein B (apo-B) in patients with dementia of Alzheimer type (DAT, 14 patients) and multi-infarct dementia (MID, 63 patients). No significant differences in the estimated lipid parameters in both groups were found, except the calculated value of atherogenic index (Ch/HDL-Ch), which was significantly higher in patients with MID. Our results suggest that this parameter is a much more sensitive atherogenic indicator in blood-vessels than other tested lipid parameters. This finding may influence the therapeutic approach to patients with dementia.
