·       Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of mortality in patients with mild to moderate chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end stage renal disease (ESRD.

·       Hyperlipidemia, one of the important risk factors of atherosclerosis, is an abnormality commonly encountered in patients with chronic kidney disease.

·       Patients with chronic kidney disease have other risk factor includes hypertension, diabetes mellitus, smoking, and obesity

·       Previous Studies demonstrates that CRF is commonly accompanied by lipid abnormality in the form of Hypertriglyceridemia

·       The present study is undertaken to explore the altered lipid abnormalities in CKD from stage I to stage V classified as per National Kidney Foundation Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (NKFK/DOQI) guidelines, which plays a vital role in development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

·       An attempt is made to correlate the clinical features with biochemical profile to classify the etiology and outcome on the hospitalized patients.
