| English abstract | 34mg/dl (a -15% variation). DISCUSSION: Normal values transcripted from other countries do not take into account the socio-economic, ethnic differences and eating habits of Brazilian population. So, the epidemiological studies in our region may contain unwanted tendencies of measurement. In clinical practice, the use of normal range values from other countries for this age group, in particular for TG, can cause additional unnecessary investigations and irreparable damages to children's development, in case clumsy interventions are adopted through low-calorie diets or, even worse, through drug prescription of medicines. CONCLUSION: The normal range values from the school children sampled in Maracaí, in the two- to nine-year-old age range differ from those recommended by the III DBSD. This fact enhances the need to make similar investigations in other regions of the country in order to establish a Brazilian standard for the normal range values for TG and CT and its fractions |
