    Abstract:
    Total and lipid-bound sialic acids (TSA and LBSA) were measured in the blood of 219 patients with primary or secondary hyperlipoproteinemia (129 patients with ischemic heart disease and 66 patients with diabetes mellitus type II) versus 24 normolipidemic healthy subjects. TSA levels in IHD patients differed significantly from those in IHD-free and diabetic patients. LBSA quantities were the same in IHD and IHD-free patients, being significantly higher in diabetes mellitus than in IHD. These findings give no proves to diagnostic value of TSA and LBSA as markers of IHD and coronary atherosclerosis. TSA levels may be used in the test for disturbed lipoprotein metabolism.
