Abstract: The survey was aimed to evaluate the level of total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride(TG), fasting blood glucose (FBG), and prevalence of dyslipidemia of schoolchildren in Beijing Changchun Street. Height, body weight, fasting blood glucose (FBG), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride(TG) and Rohrer index of 672 (aged 6~12 years, 326 boys, 346 girls) schoolchildren were collected and analyzed. For all these children, mean TCwas (4.66±0.52) mmol/L, mean TGwas (1.97±0.22) mmol/Land mean FBGlevel was (4. 25±0. 96) mmol/L. According to the criteria of dylipidemia, there were 17.3% and 21.9% children, with TC≥5. 72 mmol/Land TC 5.20~5. 69 mmol/Lrespectively. Besides, there were 10.0% and 7.8% children with TG≥1.65 mmol/Land FBG>6.05 mmol/L. The overweighted and obese children had higher TC and TG levels than normal children. The result of this survey suggests that overweight and obesity may increase the prevalence of dyslipidemia in schoolchildren.
