60 year old female with acute pancreatitis at end of September, is beeing
fed though central line. Triglycerides were 7.20 mmol/L, with Cholesterol
1.79 mmol/L, and HDL 0.2 mmol/L. Sample in 1/2 dilution supported these
results. Would one expect a higher cholesterol for the Triglycerides or are
the levels merely reflcting her form of nutritional support?
