In a study of critically ill trauma patients mean cholesterol levels were significantly lower 119 44 mg dl than expected values 201 17 mg dl . In patients who died final cholesterol levels fell by 33 versus a 28 increase in survivors. Cholesterol levels were also adversely affected by infection or organ system dysfunction. Other studies have illustrated the clinical significance of hypocholesterolemia. Because lipoproteins can bind and neutralize lipopolysaccharide hypocholesterolemia can negatively impact outcome. New therapies directed at increasing low cholesterol levels may become important options for the treatment of sepsis.
