They were divided into four subgroups- A, B, C and D phenotype. Demographic characteristics, Anthropometric measurementwere done and lipid profile was noted and analysed using SPSS software. Result- Most of cases 38(42.2%) showed D phenotype, followed by A phenotype in 32(35.6%) cases, C phenotype in 12(13.3%) and B phenotype in 8(8.9%) cases. BMI was higher in phenotype A as compared to phenotype D.Mean levels of cholesterol and Triglycerides were significantly higher and mean HDL level was significantly lower in cases with phenotype B as compared to other phenotypes (p value<0.05).
