<prompt> Dyslipidemia associated with alcohol consumption-Decreased HDLIncreased HDLDecreased triglyceraseDecreased lipoprotein  <response>: Dyslipidemia is an abnormal amount of lipids e.g. triglycerides, cholesterol andor fat phospholipids in the blood. In developed countries, most dyslipidemias are hyperlipidemias; that is, an elevation of lipids in the blood. This is often due to diet and lifestyle. Prolonged elevation of insulin levels can also lead to dyslipidemia. Likewise, increased levels of O-GlcNAc transferase OGT may cause dyslipidemia. The most common conditions that were felt to be contributing to dyslipidemia were excessive alcohol intake 10 percent and uncontrolled diabetes mellitus 8 percent. Hyperlipidemia in association with insulin resistance is common in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus Dyslipidemia is a high level of lipids cholesterol, triglycerides, or both or a low high-density lipoprotein HDL cholesterol level. Lifestyle, genetics, disorders such as low thyroid hormone levels or kidney disease, drugs, or a combination can contribute. Ref Davidson 23rd edition pg 838
